Abstract: The reliability of an industrial system plays a significant role in new technological era where everyone is concerned about the performance of associated industry. With the frequent demands of the customers, the job of the production industries becomes more tedious to produce the required products at a high rate. To fulfill the customer’s demand, the initial focus of the industries is to work well without any interruption/failure in the entire production process. In this paper, Reliability, Availability, MTTF, MTTR, MTBF, ENOF is proposed for an industrial system namely “Injection moulding machine”. For this, the membership function for right triangular generalized fuzzy numbers (RTrGFN) is proposed with the certain level of confidence. The real data of the Injection moulding machine is taken to validate the proposed methodology. The input data is extracted from the records/maintenance sheets of several years and found uncertainty due to the loss of any information or human mistakes. The parameters of the system like failure rate and repair time is retrieved. Based on data, AND-OR combination for the system is constructed. The lambda-tau methodology along with RTrGFN and its corresponding arithmetic operations is used for the performance analysis of the considered “Injection moulding machine”. For better understanding the results are discussed with the aid of graphs. Also after seeing the result one can conclude that this methodology is one of the best methodology for the performance analysis of a conventional system. Also authors have added the highlights and future scope of the research work at the end of the manuscript.
