This master thesis concerns modern method of TPM used in the production companies for maintenance of machinery. In the theoretical part, general maintenance is first described, as well as the TPM method. There is also described the technical diagnostics, which was emphasized in the practical part in terms of the use of vibrodiagnostics in predictive maintenance. In the practical part there is presented the proposal for introduction of the TPM method at the SMC Industrial Automation s.r.o. in Vyškov.

This thesis is about semiautomatic network protocol diagnostics and creating protocol description from eavesdropped communication. Several network eavesdropping techniques  and some common programs for network analysis are introduced. Well-known network protocols are described, with focus on their communication messages. Some already existing methods for creating models from examples are mentioned and their characteristics defined. Next we design architecture of developed tool and some methods, that create protocol description. After that we explain implementation of this tool and finally the tool is tested and experimented with.

This diploma thesis introduces the problematics of selective soldering. The theoretical part deals with description of soldering process and its possibilitites, use of this processes for selective soldering and the control of production. The practical part describes the methodics of measuring the amount and uniformity of flux applied on printed circuit boards, effects and stability of preheaters and dwell time if PCB in the soldering wave. The next part deals with the production test for the certain product, cleanness of the single processes, x-ray diagnostics and cross section of the boards. In the end is economic evaluation of the processes. The main object of this thesis is to suggest the optimal production process for the product.

The aim of this thesis was to build equipment for testing bearing condition analysis during its life. The theory of bearing parameter and diagnostics methodology for their analysis are discussed. Hardware used for device design and data collection. Finally, the course of measurement and software evaluating the end of the test are discussed.

The Master's thesis deals with online vibration diagnostics of a milling center. It contains a methodology to determine the vibration operating limits and to detect machine of condition monitoring. The thesis also contains a general description of maintenance and technical diagnostics with a focus on vibrodiagnostics. The main part of the thesis is to solve the problem of determining the operating limits of spindle vibration depending on the production program. The essence of the solution is to determine vibration limits for individual milling tools.

There is a current trend of constantly increasing emphasis on the cost-effective operation of vehicles in freight and passenger transportation. One of the efforts is to reduce the unproductive time of the driver and the vehicle which is spent on maintenance and repairs. The unproductive time can be significantly minimized by well-timed and faultless diagnostics that is, ideally, without need for a service visit. Real-time remote diagnostics, including an application that evaluates the current state of the vehicle, is a modern tool for efficient use of the vehicle.

This master thesis deals with the technical diagnostics, focusing mainly on vibration diagnostics. This problematice is described in the first part of this work on a theoretical level. The next part describes the paper machine, diagnostic system and the measuring points are classified into databases. The practical part of this work consists of a proposal for the methodology of vibration diagnostics for a paper machine, the procedure for measuring and evaluating the measured values. Part of the work is also a practical example of the measurement of the central cylinder, on which the procedure is tested, and the compilation of new limit values.

The master’s thesis is focused on online diagnostics of the machining process. In the theoretical part are presented maintenance possibilities of machine tools. A whole chapter is devoted to vibrodiagnostics, which describes vibration sensors, their attachment to the measured object and methods of vibration signal processing. The practical part lies in creating a software diagnostic solution for chosen PLC and sensors. The functionality of the proposed system was verified during experimental machining, which also provided valuable data for the correct setting of the system.

The diploma thesis deals with the analysis of the effects of shock absorber wear on the driving dynamics of the vehicle. Furthermore, a quarter model of the car was created in the Simulink software, where a procedure for evaluating the condition of the shock absorber while driving the vehicle was created. This procedure was subsequently validated on real measured data from the Hummer H3 car.

Terms of acoustic emission (AE) and electromagnetic emission (EME) designated physical effects and also as diagnostic methods based on these effects. These effects are caused by generated cracks in materials that rank among non-destructive techniques of material diagnostics. The advantage of them is that they do not affect the measured object and give us information about the current dynamic state of a tested material. One disadvantage of these effects is that they provide very low energy of signal emissions and make it difficult for broader usage. It is expected better localization of cracks in non-conductive materials by connecting of these two techniques (diagnostics). There are designed and described new methods for crack detection with usage of AE and EME signals in this work. Also there is description of measuring arrangement intended of crack detection and experimental sample for checking accuracy of methods for crack detection. There was performed comparison of accuracy of methods in crack detection.
