Effective strategies for
Reducing costs in machine maintenance
Machine maintenance and technical repair are crucial for intact work processes. But if handled incorrectly, they eat up time and therefore money. To this end, we offer you effective strategies to reduce costs in machine maintenance. Let's get on with it!
What makes machine maintenance more expensive?
There is not just one but several key points that drive up machine maintenance costs. And that is actually the core of the problem, which is popularly called “Small cattle also make crap.” This is because the many supposedly favourable points considered appropriate for the maintenance of machines add up to a problem in the balance sheet. But which points are meant?
The five most expensive machine maintenance mistakes
- Only pay attention to machine care when it is too late
- Don't encourage employees to maintain their machines
- Don't keep an eye on maintenance dates (insurance will then no longer apply)
- Pay for repairs rather than schedule maintenance
- Do not have maintenance carried out by currently trained experts
At Liemont, we can help you solve the problem
Use the findings from the five most common mistakes and turn them into effective strategies with Liemont to visibly reduce machine maintenance costs.
- What you can do yourself
Invest in targeted training to teach your workforce the importance of daily machine maintenance. These training courses are cheaper than financing courses and continuing education for a few employees who are supposed to maintain the machines themselves but are then no longer up to date.
Appoint someone responsible who always keeps an eye on the routine. This includes essential care routines, such as machine cleaning. We are happy to provide you with advice and assistance so that your employees know exactly what to look out for.
In addition, always keep an eye on maintenance dates. It's best to schedule the next maintenance appointment so that it won't be missed anymore. Because only if the maintenance dates are met does your insurance also take effect in the event of damage.
And when it comes to self-paid repairs, the same applies: Repairing and possibly replacing the machines is always significantly more expensive than regular routine maintenance. And if you wait, you don't have to replace, because minor repairs are immediately visible and cost less.
