Calculates the wear level of a machine component based on hours of use.
This algorithm takes as input the number of hours a certain component has been used, typically you can use the Working Time.
Based on standard usage plus a tolerance it returns the wear value reached, which is saved together with the new total of working hours.
An insight metric based on this algorithm is calculated daily, so the input usage metric must provide the amount of working time in milliseconds, during the previous day.
This feature is available for the following modules:
VALUE-ADDED DIGITAL SERVICES, SMART AFTER SALES & ADVANCED SERVICES, SMART SPARE PARTS & CONSUMABLES
