Machine / Tools Maintenance

Service the Machine Before It Stops the Line

Plans that fire on the calendar or the hours run, breakdowns recorded with their downtime and root cause, spares consumed against the job, and a cost figure for every asset.

  • Usage-based triggers
  • Downtime recorded
  • Cost per asset
  • Planned, not remembered

    Triggers on a date or on running hours, whichever comes first.

  • Root cause recorded

    So the same fault three times reads as one problem.

  • Spares against the job

    Consumption tied to the machine that needed them.

  • A number to argue with

    Labour and parts per asset, so replacement is a calculation.

An unplanned stop costs more than the repair that follows it.

Three gaps account for most of the downtime a plant absorbs, and none of them is an engineering problem.

Reactive

Maintenance happens when something stops

Servicing is remembered under pressure, so the plant runs on repairs rather than on a plan.

Unexplained

The same fault, again

Each breakdown is fixed and forgotten, so a machine failing three times a year looks like bad luck.

Uncounted

Nobody knows what a machine costs to keep

Labour and parts are absorbed into overheads, so replacing an asset is argued rather than calculated.

Neome closes all three by planning on usage, recording the cause, and counting what each asset costs.

Preventive

Maintenance triggered by the calendar or by the hours run

A plan fires on a date or on usage, whichever comes first, and raises the task with its checklist and a named technician. Servicing on running hours rather than the calendar alone is what stops a lightly used machine being over-serviced and a hard-worked one being missed.

  • Calendar and usage triggers
  • Tasks generated automatically
  • Checklist per plan

Breakdowns

Record the downtime and the reason, not just the repair

A breakdown raises a work order that captures when the line stopped, how long it was down and what actually caused it. Root cause is a field rather than a conversation, which is the only way a repeating fault becomes visible as a pattern instead of a run of separate incidents.

  • Work order on breakdown
  • Downtime recorded
  • Root cause documented

Spares

Parts consumed against the machine that needed them

Spares are issued from stock against the work order, so consumption is tied to the asset and the job. Critical components carry reorder alerts, because discovering that the last seal has gone is a discovery best made before the line is already stopped.

  • Issued against the job
  • Consumption per machine
  • Reorder alerts on critical spares

History

One machine, one history, patterns included

Every service and every failure sits on the asset, so three seal failures in fourteen months read as one problem rather than three repairs. That history is what turns an argument about replacing a machine into a calculation.

  • Full history per asset
  • Repeat faults visible
  • Service and failure together

Reporting

What each asset costs, and how much of the month it ran

Set a date range and every figure below it is bounded by those dates.

Availability

Is the plant meeting its plan?

Uptime against planned running time per machine, which turns a vague sense that the line keeps stopping into a number.

Downtime by reason

Why does it stop?

Hours lost grouped by cause, so a recurring fault is visible instead of being absorbed into the general noise of a shift.

Cost per asset

What is it costing to keep?

Labour and parts booked against the machine that consumed them, which is the figure that makes a replacement decision arguable rather than instinctive.

All the features, done right

Asset register

Machines and tools, by line and plant.

Calendar plans

Servicing on a date.

Usage triggers

Servicing on running hours.

Task checklists

What the service actually involves.

Technician assignment

Named, with a schedule.

Breakdown reporting

A work order, not a phone call.

Root cause

A field, so patterns can be found.

Downtime tracking

How long the line was actually stopped.

Spare parts

Issued against the work order.

Critical spare alerts

Before the line stops, not during.

Asset history

Services and failures in one list.

Cost per asset

Labour and parts, per machine.
