The MAS is a software framework that can be configured to fit various types of machines. It is especially helpful for high maintenance equipment like crushers, mills, screens or scrapers but also for larger machinery with many different subcomponents like shiploaders, reclaimers, excevators and more.

Nearly all new thyssenkrupp machines will be delivered with all hardware prerequisites to use the MAS with them. For using the software with existing machines, the required hardware can be retrofitted. The software can be configured to meet the specific maintenance requirements of the machine. In this case, thyssenkrupp maintenance experts and on site technicians together with the customer’s maintenance supervisors and technicians develop the maintenance plans, and implement them into the software.

The configuration also includes the design of schematic machine illustrations to give the user a better overview of the location of the components needing maintenance. This includes a complete machine overview of the machine and more detailed views of critical machine parts and components (e.g. hydraulics).
