Building the defence of equipment management for FGTECH's production

In the busy workshop of FGTECH, the orderly operation of equipment is a crucial note in the production symphony. This week, the equipment comprehensive ‘health check’ - equipment management ‘inspection, maintenance, repair’ work is carried out as scheduled, to provide a solid guarantee for the stable operation of the entire production process.

‘People-oriented, safe production’ is a concept deeply rooted in the production culture of FGTECH. As the core support in the production process, equipment maintenance is of great significance. It is like a ‘cardiotonic agent’, injecting vitality into the equipment, keeping the equipment in the best operating condition, effectively improving the production efficiency and significantly reducing the probability of failure. Firmly grasp the balance of safety and efficiency of production, and become an important cornerstone of the stable development of enterprises.

In order to make the equipment maintenance work really put into practice, the company has established a scientific and rigorous assessment mechanism. Equipment maintenance is assessed every month strictly according to the ‘five rates’ of equipment - ‘completion rate, leakage rate, failure rate, maintenance compliance rate, start rate’. Completion rate is a visual reflection of equipment health. High completion rate means enough production ‘combat power’. Strictly controlling the leakage rate not only ensures the safety of the production environment, but also maintains the accuracy of the equipment. Low failure rate ensures the continuity of production and reduces the loss caused by downtime. Maintenance compliance rate supervises the standardised implementation of maintenance work and provides all-round care for the equipment. The start rate accurately reflects the actual operating efficiency of the equipment and promotes efficient production.

On the basis of the ‘five-level’ assessment, the company has also built a ‘three-level’ assessment system consisting of team, workshop (department) and company. As the forefront of equipment management, the team carries out detailed daily inspection and basic maintenance of equipment. Workshops (departments) play a connecting role, coordinating resources and supervising the implementation of equipment management. At the company level, the team grasps the direction and formulates strategies from a macro perspective to ensure that the equipment management work is in line with the overall development objectives of the enterprise.

Take an equipment maintenance experience last month as an example. During the daily inspection, the first-line team keenly discovered the slight abnormal noise of the glass drilling machine by listening to its running sound. According to the process requirements, it was immediately reported to the workshop and the equipment operating parameters were carefully recorded. The workshop quickly organised technicians. They disassembled and inspected the equipment in combination with its previous operating data, and found that the key transmission parts were seriously worn out. As a result of the timely discovery, with the support of the company's resource allocation, the technicians quickly replaced the worn parts and carried out a comprehensive debugging and calibration of the equipment. This kind of maintenance work not only avoided the sudden failure of the equipment leading to production line stoppage, but also extended the service life of the equipment. As a result, the completion rate and start-up rate of this equipment remained at a high level that month, which effectively ensured the smooth completion of production tasks.

Three-level linkage, closely linked, so that equipment maintenance work is no longer an abstract concept, but quality, quantity, form and effect of the reality of practice. The stable operation of each piece of equipment reflects the dedication of personnel at all levels to equipment management, and also lays a solid foundation for the company to continuously produce high-quality products and advance steadily in the market competition.
