Preventative Maintenance
A Reel Power Service PM (Preventive Maintenance) program is a proactive approach to maintaining your equipment and assets by scheduling regular maintenance tasks to prevent failures and extend their lifespan. It involves establishing a routine for checking equipment for potential issues, instead of waiting for breakdowns to occur.
Key aspects of Reel Power’s Service PM program include:
Regular maintenance tasks:
This includes scheduled inspections, lubrication, cleaning, and component checks.
Proactive approach:
We aim to identify and address potential problems before they lead to costly repairs or downtime.
Benefits:
Reduced downtime, extended asset lifespan, improved productivity, and lower maintenance costs.
Let us help you manage your assets more effectively, minimize risks, and optimize operations by prioritizing proactive maintenance over reactive repairs. Contact us for more information.
Maintenance Foundations:
8 Strategies Most Plants Use... and One We Rarely Talk About
1. Reactive / Corrective Maintenance
Repair equipment after failure.
EX: Conveyor coupling fails during production.
2. Preventive Maintenance
Maintenance at scheduled intervals.
EX: Bearings replaced every 8 months.
3. Predictive Maintenance / Condition Monitoring
Condition monitoring to detect problems early.
EX: Vibration shows bearing wear.
4. Condition-Based Maintenance
Triggered by abnormal conditions.
EX: Temperature shows gearbox overheating.
5. Run-to-Failure
Operate low-cost parts until failure.
EX: Replace a cooling fan when it stops.
6. Run-to-Target (RTT)
Operate until performance limit.
EX: Service pump when flow drops below 85 m³/hr.
7. Reliability-Centered Maintenance
Strategy based on risk and criticality.
EX: Apply the best strategy for each asset (Criticality, Cost of Failure, Reliability).
8. Autonomous Maintenance
Operators perform routine care.
EX: Operators clean and inspect equipment.
9. Run-to-Management Alignment
Repair waits until priorities, budgets, and targets align.
EX: Sometimes repairs wait until leadership priorities and reality "align."
