ObjectiveLubrication costs contribute to only 3% of total maintenance spending but typically influence 70% of addressable mechanical failures. Optimizing lubrication management reduces potential losses caused by mechanical failures and enhances operational reliability. Our services help optimize machine operations at a low cost, thereby improving profitability and competitiveness.
Benefit to the Customer
- Reducing Maintenance Costs:
  Minimize maintenance costs by stocking only the necessary spare parts required for engine repair or overhaul during specific periods. Leverage analysis reports to schedule repairs and reduce downtime by identifying symptoms and trends.
- Optimizing Engine and Equipment Performance:
  Enhance the capability of engines and equipment through effective management and maintenance strategies. capability
- Predicting and Minimizing Downtime:
  Utilize data and trend analysis to predict and minimize downtime. By analyzing patterns and leveraging a comprehensive database, it becomes possible to forecast the timing and extent of potential damage, allowing for proactive measures.
- Increasing Productivity:
  With the ability to predict downtime, industries can prepare additional production programs to build buffer stock, ensuring a consistent supply and meeting commitments.
  - As down time can be predicted, industry has the ability to prepare additional production program to build buffer stock to secure committed supply
  - Optimizing Oil Drain Intervals:
    Extend oil draining periods to reduce oil consumption while maintaining equipment performance and reliability.
