What Is Industrial Maintenance?

Industrial maintenance is the process of keeping industrial and commercial buildings and their assets in good repair. It encompasses everything from preventive maintenance programs to responding to work orders.

Maintenance managers use facilities maintenance software to plan and track repairs, and property maintenance crews use it to get the work done. In recent years, there has been a growing trend towards integrating industrial maintenance into overall facilities management.

This allows for better asset management and can lead to significant cost savings. In commercial buildings, industrial maintenance is an essential part of keeping the property in good condition and ensuring that it runs smoothly.

Emergency Support

Through preventative and predictive maintenance our goal is to avoid unexpected equipment failures, but emergency repairs are an essential part of our maintenance strategy. In most cases, our team can respond immediately to get your equipment back up and running as quickly as possible.

The Importance of Industrial Maintenance

Industrial maintenance is the process of preventing failure before it arises. Businesses depend on the flow and automation of their systems, networks, and procedures; downtime on any of these can cost valuable resources. It helps to know that facility maintenance can alleviate these issues and, in some instances, remove them entirely.

Industrial maintenance is essential for keeping factories running smoothly. By regularly servicing and repairing equipment, industrial maintenance teams can help to improve efficiency and reduce downtime. In addition, industrial maintenance workers can help to extend the life of machinery and prevent safety hazards. As a result, regular industrial maintenance allows businesses to significantly reduce costs in the long run.

  • Save money
  • Reduce downtime
  • Protect your assets
  • Increase electrical safety in the workplace
  • Streamline the production line through electrical controls such as control panels and a control system

Many industrial businesses require the help of an electrical contractor to maintain and improve their buildings. An industrial electrical contractor is responsible for tasks such as installing and maintaining management software, entry-level components, and other more specialized equipment. 

They can also be in charge of designing the build according to the specifications of the client. In some cases, they may need to liaise with other tradespeople to ensure that the project is completed on time and within budget. No matter what their specific role is, industrial electrical contractors play an important role in keeping businesses running smoothly.

Industries Known to Use Industrial Maintenance

While not all businesses have production plans that require constant industrial maintenance, there are some industries that rely on it to keep operations going.

1

Food and Beverage

The food and beverage industry requires optimal flow to ensure the food products produced meet high safety measures. A halted production line can result in spoilage, which can lead to contamination.

The production of beverages also requires high hygiene levels, such as sterilized equipment, to prevent bacterial growth. Systems that may be affected due to a lack of maintenance include food processing equipment, heating and cooling systems, conveyor belts, and bottling and canning machines.

2

Manufacturers

The constant flow of goods is essential in a manufacturing plant, such as in bio-science manufacturing, as it helps the business meet the demands of its customers. When these industries experience downtime due to a lack of maintenance, it creates instability in the supply and demand of goods. It may also affect profit levels and job security.

3

Construction Companies

Construction companies rely on the efficacy of their workforce to see projects through. This includes the smooth running of industrial equipment such as cement mixers, milling machines, and CNC machines.
