Preventive maintenance importance in Roll-On equipment

Preventive maintenance is a recommended practice, which guarantees the proper functioning of the equipment and helps to extend its useful life, avoiding problems and losses.

Therefore, to ensure the good performance and conservation of Roll-On Roll-Off road implements, it is important to carry out some periodic checks and reviews on these equipment.

In this article we will explain the importance of preventive maintenance to avoid problems and increase the Roll-On Roll-Off equipment durability.

Preventive maintenance on Roll On equipment: know how it works

Roll On equipment preventive maintenance is a planned and systematic action for the revision, control and monitoring of machines and equipment, which allows the identification and correction of problems from the beginning. The more often it is done, the less likely it is to fail.

Thus, preventive maintenance involves systematic reviews, cleaning and lubrication actions, replacement of parts and inspection plans, calibration and inspection of instruments in general.

Unlike corrective maintenance, in which machines run until failure occurs, preventive maintenance prevents further damage from occurring.

See some benefits of preventive maintenance:

• Predicts failures;
• Keeps the equipment running efficiently;
• Increases the equipment useful life;
• Reduces machine energy consumption;
• Avoid interrupting production and transportation;
• Reduces maintenance costs;
• Increases work safety for employees.

It is also worth remembering that this type of maintenance is usually carried out according to a schedule or machine operating rates. Typically, the review period is based on the history or the manufacturer’s recommendations. But the maintenance schedule must take into account both the length of time the equipment has been used and the intensity with which it has been used.
