Can you tell about your service solutions?
Considering today’s market-competition conditions and accordingly the expectations and demands of the production target audience, the production sustainability and the continuity of the operations particularly in the manufacturing sector have a great importance. During the process of continuity of the production and achieving the targets of the operations, the most important point in the manufacturing sector is preventing production from being interrupted. We encounter the importance of “Predictive Maintenance System” to eliminate this interruption and the negativity that is caused by the unexpected and unpredictable malfunctions and may stop the process flow. The matter in question has become important in all the large and small manufacturing and service sectors without any exception as an operation culture.
The concept defined as Predictive Maintenance and Planned Maintenance appears in the cement sector more specifically. As we all know, the most efficient and oldest area that the approach of Predictive Maintenance is practiced is particularly the cement sector. All production flow from the crusher, the first stage of the process flow including the raw material supply, to the packaging unit, the final product stage, has an completely interconnected integrated chain structure. All the units and equipment in the process chain in question are the items that interconnect and complete one another. Preventing unexpected stops and malfunctions within this process flow in the cement sector is possible by means of measures to be taken. Necessary visits and measurements are periodically performed particularly in the cement sector, however, the cases that have been experienced shows the fact that this matter must be handled in a more efficient, permanent and productive way. Because the predictive maintenance is to take measures as a result of certain measurements and analyses before experiencing any malfunction. Failing to operate due to an unexpected malfunction, the machinery and the equipment that affect each other because of this malfunction may be out of order and not be able to operate for a long while, and this will lead to highly important production losses. The results of the experiences indicate this: Although the operations are in the mentioned visit, measurement and tracking system within their own structure, the points that fail to be noticed from time to time (known as operational blindness in business) or can be ignored in analyses lead to experiencing severe negativity. At this point, simple cases that may fail to be noticed will be prevented from causing more serious and big problems by taking necessary measures and actions as a result of measurements and analyses performed earlier and turning towards predictive maintenance methods with an external point of view, outside the operation’s own structure. As Maray Makine Mühendislik, we want to say that we are always with you with our support and goal of being the most reliable partner for those to which we provide service in order to make predictive maintenance service more effective and reliable from an external standpoint even though each operation conducts measurement and tracking within their own structure.
