ACHIEVE IMPROVEMENTS THROUGH
INCREASED KNOWLEDGE
Tool-Track maintains records of all
important maintenance events, including time spent
on planned maintenance and repairs, as well as usage
of materials and external services. In addition to
providing cost information it helps to identify areas
for special attention. There are Tool and Machine
Condition Reports which record detailed technical
information on any actions taken. This provides a
knowledge base that can be used to develop more effective
maintenance planning and to measure the effect of
any changes made to maintenance routines. Therefore
guesswork is eliminated, to be replaced by a process
of continual improvement.
Some of these benefits will take
a while to materialise as you need to accumulate the
data first before making informed decisions on what
maintenance to plan, and at what frequency. The move
from reactive maintenance to a more pro-active approach
is gradual and continuous but Tool-Track will provide
the data you need and also show you where your priority
targets lie. It does this by underlining which of
your tools and machines cost you the most to maintain
and lose the most productive time for your manufacturing
department. You can be sure that you are spending
your time in the most cost-effective and beneficial
way.
