The aim of the study course is to acquire basic knowledge about the technical condition of machines and the regularities of their wear. Skills and ability are acquired in the application of machine-based prophylactic technical maintenance system, in the planning, organization and creation of material and technical base of machine maintenance works.
Knowledge: about the organization and management of planned-preventive maintenance of machines and equipment involved in the technological process of production. Knowledge of the technological design of the material and technical base necessary for the performance of machine maintenance work. Assessment - a test.
Skills: to use machine maintenance documentation and to perform practical machine maintenance. Ability to select and apply special tools, equipment and apparatus for this work. Assessment - test and laboratory work reports.
Competence: the acquired knowledge and skills can be used to make the most advantageous decision on the machine maintenance strategy and tactics in each specific situation, so that the machines can also be evaluated according to their technical service characteristics. The knowledge and skills acquired in the course will be assessed after the 3 tests and developed laboratory works and their reports.

Laboratory works must be developed and accepted. Tests must be completed with a score of at least 4. Examination.
Preparation for tests and laboratory works. Preparation of laboratory reports.
The tests are accepted if at least 4 are scored. The test evaluation criteria indicate a specific score for each correctly answered test question.
Laboratory works are accepted if laboratory reports are developed and successfully defended.
The examination test may be omitted if all the tests have been successfully completed during the semester, the laboratory work has been defended.
