Can you reduce your "crisis work?"
One major U.S. automotive manufacturer has a maintenance staff of between 15,000 and 18,000, all plants combined. They say "85% to 90% is crisis work" (breakdown).
But as some companies have found out, and more come to realize every day, their maintenance costs can be cut drastically, by establishing a “Proactive” line of defense.
What is Proactive?
Proactive maintenance is a cost saving trend toward a maintenance program that targets the root causes of machine wear and failure. Proactive methods are currently saving industries of all sizes thousands, even millions of dollars on machine maintenance every year. By 1 micron Filtration and 100% water removal, the sand blasting effects of dirty oil under pressure, is eliminated. Increase life of pumps, seals, etc.
Laboratory tests prove it.
Laboratory and field tests show that more than any other factor, fluid contamination is the number one culprit of equipment failure. Even the most microscopic particles can eventually grind a machine to a halt. No discipline has previously taken a micro view on machine damage, concentrating on the causes instead of the symptoms of wear. Proactive maintenance is that discipline, and it is quickly being recognized worldwide as the single most important means of achieving savings unsurpassed by conventional maintenance techniques. Proactive maintenance is presented as an important means to cure failure root causes and extend machine life.
Fluid contamination control through the installation and management of improved filtration systems for all lube, gear, hydraulic and turbine oils has been established as an essential method to implementing proactive maintenance. Substantial savings are based on case studies involving the installation of improved filtration applications.
Ten fold savings!
Numerous examples of 10-fold maintenance cost improvements are given. Extend the life of your plant equipment, and save money doing it! Heat, moisture, air and particles literally rob fluids and lubricants of life. But with rigid contamination control practices, these fluids and lubricants can last indefinitely which, in turn, prolongs the life of the machine’s components and keeps the machine running at the highest level of efficiency. Plus, the costs to begin a proactive contamination control program are quickly absorbed in maintenance cost savings.
A basic contamination control program can be implemented in three steps:
