What is Preventive Maintenance? Preventive maintenance is the systematic care and protection of tools, equipment, machines, and vehicles in order to keep them in a safe, usable condition, that limits downtime and extends productivity. We must always be aware that maintenance tasks themselves are potentially hazardous and can result in injury.

TOOLS AND MAINTENANCE
The Different Types of Equipment Maintenance Practices: 1. Planned maintenance 2. Corrective maintenance 3. Routine maintenance
It refers to scheduled maintenance to cope with equipment failures before they actually occur. It can be further broken down into preventive and predictive maintenance. 1. Planned maintenance
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE is carried out at predetermined intervals by following a prescribed criterion. It is time-driven and based on the assumption that usability of a mechanical component will decline over its useful life-cycle. It includes activities like regular equipment inspection, partial or complete overhauls, oil changes and lubrication etc.
PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE is different from preventive maintenance such that it depends on the working condition of the machinery rather than its average life expectancy. It requires monitoring equipment during its normal operations to see if it’s working at its best.
This type of maintenance restores any failed pieces of equipment. It is typically performed at irregular intervals since technicians don’t know when a certain machine will break down. The main aim here is to fix a problem in the shortest possible time using three steps: diagnosis, repair and verification. 2. Corrective maintenance
Not dependent on any broken parts or downtime, it includes some necessary activities such as cleaning, lubricating and replacing batteries on small-scale assets or equipment. This is generally performed on a weekly basis. 3. Routine maintenance
The Steps of a Maintenance Program: 1. Create a team 2. Record your equipment 3. Establish maintenance procedures 4. Prioritize maintenance tasks 5. Train your team 6. Seek improvements
First, you need to create the right maintenance team. Recruit maintenance managers, technicians and relevant people from the operations department. Then lay down the goals you want your team to achieve. These might include minimizing corrective repair costs and reducing downtime of the equipment. Motivate your team members to make the maintenance program a success! 1. Create a team
2. Record your equipment Documenting your assets is necessary. You need to have an accurate asset count in order to know how many require maintenance. Add asset information like make/model, manufacturer ID, asset specification, and location. It is easy to update prerecorded data, and it also allows you to prioritize maintenance activities
3. Establish maintenance procedures Once you have a well-grounded inventory list, you need to determine how frequently you should service the assets. This can be done on a weekly, monthly, quarterly or a semi-annual basis depending on the item type. Additionally, you need to outline the procedures for repair including the standard operating and repair guidelines or safety measures. Finally, prepare a list of internal or outsourced maintenance tools that you need.
4. Prioritize maintenance tasks For seamless daily operation, you need to categorize high, medium and lowpriority repair tasks. Service sessions can take a lot of time so you need to choose your battles wisely. Start off with high value equipment and begin scheduling maintenance tasks with longer intervals first (annual then biannual) as they take up the most time and resources. You can then focus on low-priority items that require less effort.
5. Train your team Developing and implementing a maintenance system is a lengthy process and proper adoption of the program is key! To optimize their management strategy, companies should devise training schedules so that their team knows exactly how to deploy repair practices within different departments. Optimal use of the restorative plan will eventually lead you to higher return on investment.
6. Seek improvements Businesses evolve along with their assets over time. Due to this constant transition, it is important to analyze progress for future growth. You might notice that some equipment gets checked-in for maintenance more often than others. This can be concerning if the repair and replacement costs of the item exceed its actual worth. To tackle such incidents, assess your maintenance plan after regular intervals, and make any changes as necessary.
The Implementation of the Best Practices of Equipment Maintenance: 1. Gather baseline information 2. Choose an appropriate support system 3. Put Together Maintenance Checklists 4. Develop Consistency in Inspection 5. Send out Custom Reminders
1. Gather baseline information After collecting all necessary data on your capital assets, you can estimate the approximate equipment usage. Before you start off checking-in assets for repair, it is important to assess the scale of the challenge. Collect information for machine downtime, average time between failures, replacement cost of parts, and response time of technicians etc. The aim is to calculate the average cost of one hour of downtime and then use this statistic to design a viable maintenance strategy.
2. Choose an appropriate support system Companies can opt for either a manual or a computerized system when it comes to picking an equipment maintenance software. A software might seem costly as it needs some upfront investment involving subscription fees, but it comes along with many benefits.
3. Put Together Maintenance Checklists Carrying out service and repair sessions means scheduling service tickets to reduce the impact of downtime. A maintenance strategy should be well defined and reviewed on a regular basis. To ensure the correct implementation of the program, it helps to have service events listed down.You can also develop a preventive maintenance checklist to monitor repairs and adjustments without missing out on critical assets.
3. Put Together Maintenance Checklists • Lighting • Electrical • Safety • HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) • Buildings • Fixtures and furniture • Plumbing
4. Develop Consistency in Inspection An excellent maintenance program might not produce the right outcome if you slack off in following it. It is quite possible for technicians to miss out on certain repair events in case of tight deadlines. While it becomes tough to follow the inspection strategy in an ongoing project, make sure that you do not skip the routine completely. In such situations, track records to ensure there are no discrepancies. To speed up processes, you can switch to electronic monitoring which takes up less time than paper logs.
5. Send out Custom Reminders Organizations working with various types of assets often find it hard to keep track of their last maintenance session. Employees might forget the timeline and even end up using faulty equipment which could lead to safety hazards. To prevent such incidents, maintain a service log which allows you to send out email alerts. With the ability to customize notifications as per requirements, you can remind the concerned department about the schedule. This way, you can ensure a seamless inspection routine.
INTEGRATION of concept to other subject areas: Cleaning, maintaining and storing the tools and equipment according to manufacturers’ specifications and supervisors’ instructions can also be applicable to other subject areas like Mathematics equipment, Sports equipment in MAPEH, Science apparatus, and the like.
