Most production plants have scaled back in recent years and are running as lean as possible to effectively compete in the world economy. This sometimes leaves a gap in the area of routine machinery maintenance. Some companies cannot afford to keep on full time maintenance workers. This is an opportunity for the manufacturers of the machinery to offer routine service plans that will assure the proper, timely maintenance of the machinery without the cost and overhead of retaining maintenance personnel.
Just like any other mechanical and electrical machinery, packaging machinery needs regular maintenance performed on them to keep them running efficiently and to reduce downtime. You have heard the expression ‘An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.’ This is especially true for machinery. Keep it well-maintained on a regular basis to prevent expensive and unnecessary breakdowns.
New England Machinery recognized this need and offers the owners of NEM equipment preventive maintenance programs that are customized to fit their requirements. Check with your packaging machinery manufacturer to see if they can offer this valuable service to your company.
