Preventive maintenance planning and practices influence most major maintenance department activities in a manufacturing environment. Below are a few samples of this Fassadenreinigung Neuss.

• Equipment downtime is basically affected by preventive maintenance or the lack there of.
• Repair work orders are put through the influences of the preventive maintenance program.
• Purchasing and inventory are influenced by preventive maintenance for routine replacement of expendable spares along with repair parts necessary for unexpected downtime.

As evidenced by the points above, preventive maintenance must certanly be "first base" for almost any maintenance department. Unfortunately sometimes routine preventive maintenance activities often don't get the eye or credit they are due. This is a mistake. So what are the keys to a fruitful preventive maintenance program?

1. Careful Planning of the Preventive Maintenance Program

Arranging a preventive maintenance program involves the following:

1. Determine tasks and intervals needed to keep up the equipment.
2. Make certain that the appropriate resources have been in place.
   • Schedule maintenance personnel for maximum preventive maintenance wrench time.
   • Know the way scheduled equipment downtime and maintenance personnel scheduling interface.
   • Manage spares effectively.
3. Select a scheduling and accountability system (preventive maintenance software, CMMS software or equivalent)

Determine Maintenance Tasks and Intervals

An excellent preventive maintenance (PM) task list contains the following components:

• The gear item.
• The task(s).
• Anyone the duty is assigned to.
• An activity interval.
• A start date and due date.
• Optional: Detailed instructions and pictures if needed.
• Optional: Task completion sequence.

Begin along with your equipment list. Next gather appropriate tasks for preventive maintenance task lists from OEM manuals or online manuals when possible. This is a great place to start, especially with newer equipment. Sometimes, the gear warranty is dependent upon following OEM recommendations. Another source of tasks is the maintenance manager's experience and intuition. Yet another source is branch locations running similar equipment.
