The disadvantage of fixed time preventive maintenance is that it may result in unnecessary maintenance activities and associated costs. Since maintenance tasks are performed based on a predetermined schedule rather than actual equipment condition, there's a risk of performing maintenance when it's not needed. This can lead to wasted resources, including time, labor, and materials. Additionally, if maintenance is performed too frequently, it can increase the likelihood of introducing errors or causing equipment wear due to unnecessary disassembly and reassembly. Finally, fixed time preventive maintenance doesn't take into account variations in equipment usage or environmental factors, which could lead to either over-maintenance or under-maintenance.
