  • System and method for estimating part wear based on environment
    Patent number: 10109121
    Abstract: A wear estimation system for a component of a machine includes a geolocation unit, a non-transitory computer-readable medium bearing a component wear estimate program, a controller, and an interface device. The geolocation unit is configured to generate a location signal indicative of a location of the machine. The controller is in operable communication with the geolocation unit to receive the location signal therefrom and is configured to execute the component wear estimate program. The interface device is configured to display a graphical user interface of the component wear estimate program. The component wear estimate program is configured to determine an estimated part life for the component based upon an environmental characteristic of the location; to track an actual usage amount for the component; and to indicate, through the graphical user interface, when the usage amount of the component exceeds a threshold percentage of the estimated part life.
