Case Studies : Large Drive Preventive Maintenance Plan

Duration of the project : 18 months Number of project hours : 500 Ongoing project

Customer Expectation

Our customer, a flexible piping manufacturer, contacted us regarding outdated control and power components in its large drives. These components were causing drift, malfunctions, and, in some cases, breakage. There was no maintenance plan or CAPEX budget, and due to the large fleet of equipment, clear prioritization was lacking.

**DV GROUP Solution**

Our experts conducted a comprehensive on-site analysis, assessing material value, obsolescence, and possible delivery solutions (new/refurbished), and compiled an overview of the costs, timelines, and benefits of the measures.

**Work Completed**

We delivered a turnkey solution with a structured inventory to identify weak points and facilitate strategic decisions. Based on this analysis, we prepared a technical and commercial proposal, jointly defined standards, and supplemented the preventative measures with options to optimally balance budget, expectations, and the condition of the fleet.

**Benefits and Advantages**

* Customized, sustainable solution
* Reduced downtime and more time for planned maintenance
* Increased plant availability and reliability
* Increased production and improved margins
* Continuous, predictable maintenance
