Maintenance strategies: an essential catalyst for operational success!
In the dynamic theater of industrial operations, competition for asset efficiency and reliability is fiercer than ever. Maintenance strategy is the cornerstone of this quest.
It’s a complex balancing act between foresight and reactivity, between prevention and intervention, which is becoming increasingly important.
Looking back on how equipment fails!
There’s nothing more frustrating than seeing our key equipment take an impromptu break, leading to costly downtime and operational headaches.
It’s at these crucial moments that preventive maintenance proves to be our best ally.
Become the caring doctor of your assets!
Preventive maintenance, made possible by Asset Health, is like taking vitamins for our machines. By constantly monitoring data, we can anticipate and remedy small problems before they turn into major complications.
It’s like administering proactive care to our equipment, ensuring long life and optimum performance.
Reality check: you are not ready for DX!
Above are the results of a quick poll we held during our presentation at iMC 2023 (International Maintenance Conference).
Most of the attendants in the room are in early stage of DX. Only 22% aspire to reach level 6. The results highlight the importance of setting up a strong maintenance and reliability foundation before embarking on a DX journey towards full plant automation.
How can good reliability boost your business?
Reliability refers to how consistent a plants’ operations and performance are. Thus, a plant boasting high reliability demonstrates the capability to sustain consistent production levels, meet market demands, and avert unexpected asset failures and downtime.
The Keys to Strategic Lubrication in Industrial Maintenance
In the United States, breakdowns caused by inadequate lubrication represent a considerable cost for companies.
According to a recent study by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), machine failures attributable to poor lubrication are responsible for over 70% of unplanned downtime in the manufacturing industry. These interruptions cost millions of dollars every year in emergency repairs, lost production and lost profits.
By adopting a proactive, quality-oriented approach to lubrication, companies can optimize their performance and ensure their long-term success.
