Abstract
There are described methods and system for managing machine tool maintenance. The method comprises assessing health data for the machine tool over health assessment cycles, the health data indicative of a performance of the machine tool; triggering first level maintenance events on the machine tool when the health data falls outside of a tolerance; modulating a time interval between the health assessment cycles as a function of an occurrence of first level maintenance events, wherein the time interval is reduced after first level maintenance events and increased after a given number of consecutive health assessment cycles without first level maintenance events; and triggering second level maintenance events on the machine tool when second level maintenance event conditions are met.
