Abstract: This study suggests employing predictive maintenance to enhance the operational efficiency and prolong the lifespan of industrial machinery and equipment through machine-learning techniques. As producers prioritize reducing downtime and cutting expenses, proactive maintenance strategies are becoming increasingly vital for ensuring operational reliability. The research aims to gather historical data to train machine-learning models that can predict equipment failures and develop an algorithmic framework for scheduling preventive maintenance. The primary objective is to assist in forming an effective anticipatory maintenance strategy, which can lower industrial maintenance costs and improve product prices. Various machine-learning techniques, along with extensive data preprocessing and feature engineering methods, will be utilized in this research. Data preprocessing will involve tasks such as cleaning, dataset conversion, and normalization prior to model training. Feature engineering will focus on identifying the most important characteristics for accurate prediction of machine failures. Numerous machine-learning methods, including Random Forest (RF), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Support Vector Machines (SVM), will be evaluated to determine the most effective model for precise forecasting. The performance of these models will be compared using metrics such as Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), R-squared (R²), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) as indicators. Ultimately, the top-performing machine-learning models will be integrated into real industrial settings, with the optimal model expected to achieve a 5-10% increase in operational efficiency.
