MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

"Treatment without prevention is unsustainable"
-Bill Gates

 Preventive maintenance is regularly performed on a piece of equipment to lessen the likelihood of it failing. Preventative maintenance is performed while the equipment is still working, so that it does not break down unexpectedly. 

The main goal is to prevent the failure of equipment before it actually occurs. Preventive maintenance activities include equipment checks, partial or complete overhauls at specified periods. In addition, workers can record equipment deterioration so they know to replace or repair worn parts before they cause system failure.

• Improved system reliability.• Decreased cost of replacement.• Decreased system downtime.• Better spares inventory management.
