Component only replacement
reduces equipment costs
Instead of replacement of the entire piece of equipment due
to critical failure, the repair is made prior to failure and
the cost is minimized to the price of the component ( bearing
) and the labor needed for the repair.
Component only replacement reduces labor
costs
Repairs are scheduled and the amount of time for the repair
is reduced because of component replacement instead of equipment
replacement. Also, the frequency of repair for critical failure
of equipment will be reduced and the amount of “critical
callouts “ will be greatly reduced.
Component only replacement
reduces lost production time
Component only replacement is scheduled with production
to take place during scheduled downtime. Unscheduled downtime
may cost thousands of dollars per hour. A proactive maintenance
department can head off critical failure downtime by scheduling
repair during non-productive times.
