Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Why is the approach presented by the authors better than a FMECA analysis or others?

Why the authors do not follow the maintenance standards, like the KPI (EN 01534) and EN 013306?

The results and conclusions ought to be divided in two sections.

Reviewer 2 Report

The article deals with influence of component type and operating 
condition on maintenance strategy. This is related to multistage industrial machines mostly. 

The introduction provided a brief familiarization with the topic. It is well structured with enough references which are also up to date. The second part deals with Preventive programming maintenance and its improvements. From this part a methodology is presented. Here I would like to point out that  I would rename this part, since this is no proper methodology. Author only presents the other parts of the article. 

Point two is practical. A case study on multistage thermoforming machine is presented. I would maybe shorten the parts 2.1. - 2.2. where only components are listed. Why did you choose maintenance strategies studied for this MSTM are PPM and IPPM?

Final part 2.5. of the article deals with Selection of preventive maintenance strategies itself. Parameters are chosen well. The IPPM strategy seems to be the one to give better results. Conclusions are presented at the end of the article...

What is missing, is future research plans. Do authors plan to develop their strategy? Form a matrix? Use these conclusions for other machines?

Overall, acceptable
