4 Easy Tips To Keep Your Machinery Efficient | MachineHire.in

Are your machines least efficient than your expectations!!

Heavy earth-mover especially dozer, transit mixer & motor graders require routine maintenance to maintain its efficiency & productivity. Considering breakdowns of heavy machinery are expensive and unsafe.

Here are recommendations that should be taken care for extending machinery's life span:-

 1) Routine Checkup!

Every heavy machines are driven by multiple operators according to their shifts. In this way various faults can be noticed by different drivers & it is also possible that they can just avoid informing the owners about it! Thus, considering their overconfidence can cost you a big maintenance. Its good to keep a supervisor team to get a routine checkup & prevent every chance of maintenance as well.

2) Scheduled lubrication!

Lubricants reduce friction around any moving part. A scheduled lubrication maintenance extends the span of heavy equipment and parts. Lubrication is one of the most important part of maintenance checks, seeking for signs of excess oil or grease build-up on movables & check for leaks around coolants. There are specific kinds of oil and grease for every component. Its easy enough to diagnose problems with large machinery, the makeup of any contaminants will indicate which part may be suffering from wear and tear.

3) Common signs of impair!

Vibration, electrical shock, heating, friction and aging contributes equally towards the breakdown of every part in heavy machinery, a minor avoiding or carelessness may bring you a permanent shutdown and list your expensive machines into the JUNK!! 

· Vibration could be generated from gears, belts, joints & lifting parts due to overloading or rough driving along the site areas.

· Shock could be generated due to poor operator techniques or leakage current in the electrical zone of the machines. As the machines are generally metallic, avoiding such shocks may be fatal enough to death of a good employee.

· Over heating of machinery are mainly the result of friction, poor lubrication and tattered parts. A regular shift in the machinery is a good idea for maintaining the efficiency & saving the bucks as well.

· Age affects many key components such as Over heating, belts warping, drying & cracking of Seals, Loosing of Bolts and shearing of shapes 

·  Discover damages & be sure to perform the regular replacement of any worn out parts.

4) Cleanliness matters!

There are filters that require regular washing to keep working parts clean and free of contamination. Breathers should be kept clean to avoid vacuum in the air zones. Rusting is another disadvantage of storing the machinery in open.
