Preventive Maintenance Software
Manage Multiple Machinery PMs with Differing Scheduling Methods
Preventive Maintenance Management Software Definition: Computer software
system managing a set of standard procedures devised to prevent the malfunction of a piece of equipment. Malfunctions may include
such issues as breakdown, excessive wear and inaccurate measurements.
Preventative maintenance is accomplished by a defined
set of predictive or absolute measurements. Computer software systems make the task of monitoring and calculating easier through the
automatic monitoring of absolute meter readings and trend analysis.
Equipment preventive maintenance software systems can be bought off the shelf. However, rarely do these packaged solutions conform to all of
the challenges of your particular PM scheduling requirements.
Here we offer a preventive maintenance software case study for a custom
preventive maintenance software solution.
Our preventive maintenance template software requirements are listed below:
Identify multiple PM types for each piece of equipment
Specify different intervals for PM types - including
Simple user interface
On screen identification of PMs Due with report capability
Independent management of multiple schedules on equipment
Generate work order reports by equipment maintenance schedule
We have developed tables and queries in our software that allow you to use almost any method of preventative maintenance scheduling - such as vacuum pressure gauge
readings on pumps, run time, and other machine specific measurements.
Here is a simple Welcome screen which appears when the database opens. Here you can see the simplicity of the scheduling
interface by way of the main menu tabs:
Machinery PM Setup is shown in the screen below. Multiple equipment PMs can be setup and these PMs can be based on either a
calendar basis or an equipment meter reading basis, such as run time. This screen also provide a preventative maintenance
review feature for each piece of equipment.
Following are the key attributes for each piece of machinery:
Type
Make
Model
Serial Number
Description
Location
Active Status
Barcode Identification
Preventive maintenance equipment meter readings can be entered one at a time in the field by dropdown list selection or by barcode
scanning. The is also provide for review of historical measurements by selecting the Form Mode switch. Alternatively all meter
reading can be entered in batch mode back at the office.
A simple list of PMs due are on the form below.
View PMs scheduled by calendar time, operation run time hours, or other measurements such as vacuum pressure gauges, back pressure,
temperature, etc. Flexible design allow management of diverse tasks for maintenance scheduling algorithms.
Reports can be filtered by any field value and sorting can be defined by the user. Custom-design preventive maintenance software
will provide you with a cost effective solution to your preventive maintenance management.
