Equipment inspection can yield a range of benefits for your facility. These would include:

• Increased reliability: With regularly scheduled health inspections, you will be better positioned to identify potential equipment issues, allowing you to address them and plan for them more efficiently and effectively. This proactive approach can lead to fewer equipment breakdowns and an overall reduction in unplanned downtime, increasing the reliability metrics of your equipment.

• Higher output quality: When equipment is regularly inspected and maintained, it will operate at peak performance more consistently — leading to an overall improvement in product quality, a reduction in part defects and rejects, and a reduction in rework and wasted effort and material.

• Greater insight into maintenance and repairs: A machine health inspection strategy will allow inspection personnel to have a better understanding of each individual piece of equipment, developing a deep knowledge of the unique aspects and quirks of a machine. In addition to generating more data points by which to plan your maintenance and repair needs, this strategy can provide the intangible benefits of reliable gut feelings about maintenance and performance.

• Longer machine life: When equipment is inspected and maintained according to a plan, it is less likely to break down or incur damage as a result of maintenance issues. The proverbial “well-oiled machine” should operate as expected for a much longer service life when it is part of a health inspection strategy.

• Increased employee safety: When maintenance requirements go unnoticed or unheeded until they become a major issue, the safety of equipment operators and facility personnel is at risk. Equipment breakdowns can create danger for the immediate area as well as the facility. Facilities that employ regular equipment health checks may often see an increase in employee safety, as well.

• Reduced maintenance costs: The investment in a machinery health inspection strategy will almost always pay itself back with dividends — reducing unexpected downtime, decreasing the need for costly emergency repairs and part orders, extending equipment service life, and improving inventory ordering and efficiency.
