Normally, we offer this
"Monthly PM" as a service to our customers once a month, which can be
arranged to be more/less frequent. Contact us for further information. The
Monthly Preventative Maintenance Service includes:
- Planning and scheduling
- Proper installation
- Periodic inspection
- Planned lubrication
- Adjustment of machines and instruments
- Replacement of worn and damaged parts
- Recording and reporting observations,
adjustments, repairs, and replacements.
- Periodically reviewing records on inspection,
lubrication, repairs and performance of equipment
- Keeping an adequate supply of spare parts
- Determining maintenance costs
Benefits of Preventative Maintenance:
- Less production interruptions
- Fewer large-scale repairs
- Less raw material and product spoilage
- Increased life expectancy of equipment
- Less standby equipment needed
- Identification of items with high maintenance
costs leading to investigation and correction of causes, such as
misapplications, operator abuse or obsolescence
- Better spare parts control, greater work safety
and lower manufacturing costs.
These benefits are the objectives of preventive
maintenance. However, the establishment of such an individual program for
any milk plant could be facilitated by giving the dairy engineer and his
staff a general guide on the list of issues of which good preventative
maintenance is composed, on the meaning of these issues and on the methods
by which general rules can be transformed into practice.
