Predictive maintenance ROI calculator

Punch in a few numbers from your plant. See the annual cost of unplanned downtime, a realistic annual saving and payback of a predictive maintenance rollout. No login, nothing leaves your browser.

Typically 15–30% on a well-scoped case. Do not assume 50%+.

Insight
AI/CBM does not eliminate downtime, it shifts it from unplanned (expensive) to planned (cheap). Model on realistic reduction, not marketing 60%.

This is an educational estimate. Real outcome depends on sensor-data quality and machine selection.

Methodology

  1. Annual loss today = critical machines × downtime cost per hour × unplanned hours per machine per year.
  2. Annual saving = loss × realistic reduction − annual run cost.
  3. Payback (months) = implementation cost ÷ (annual saving / 12).
  4. Year 1 / 3-year net subtract implementation cost from cumulative savings.

Defaults reflect typical ranges for mid-size Polish plants. Every assumption is editable.

FAQ

How to estimate downtime cost per hour?
Lost product margin + non-productive labour + penalties + restart cost.
Why cap the reduction at 40%?
Realistic reduction is 15–30%. Higher numbers rarely survive production.
Predictive vs preventive vs reactive?
Reactive = after failure. Preventive = on schedule. Predictive = on sensor data and risk model.
What matters more than the model?
Data quality, machine selection and the maintenance decision process.
