What is tool condition monitoring?
Condition monitoring is a process where the maintenance costs are tracked over time to determine the life cycle costs (LCC) of a machine or tool. If over time the trend in maintenance costs increase above an acceptable level the option of replacement rather than repair may be a more cost-effective solution.
