Less downtime
Potential problems are detected in advance, reducing production stoppages.
Preventive maintenance for robots
We carry out regular maintenance and inspection to maintain the performance of your robot systems and reduce the risk of breakdowns.
Definition
What is preventive maintenance?
Preventive maintenance is the lubrication, inspection, adjustment and part replacement of an industrial robot at intervals planned according to its operating hours and conditions, without waiting for it to fail. It prevents unexpected downtime and high repair costs.
Regular, planned maintenance prevents unnecessary downtime and additional repair costs, ensuring continuity in your production processes.
It helps your robot systems run at full capacity while keeping product quality stable. This approach is applied not only when a breakdown occurs, but as part of continuous performance management.
Inspection and intervention process
Measurable, reportable maintenance
We manage the maintenance process in a planned, measurable and reportable way.
-
Step 1: System inspection
The general condition, operating performance and critical components of the robot are inspected.
-
Step 2: Risk analysis
Points that could lead to breakdowns, wear or loss of performance are identified.
-
Step 3: Maintenance planning
A maintenance and intervention plan is created that will not disrupt production flow.
-
Step 4: Technical intervention
Cleaning, lubrication, adjustment, part replacement and improvements are carried out.
-
Step 5: Reporting
The work performed, identified risks and recommended actions are reported.
Benefits
What preventive maintenance delivers
Regular maintenance helps your robot systems run more reliably, efficiently and for longer.
Comparison
Wait for a breakdown, or plan maintenance?
The impact of reactive versus preventive maintenance on production.
| Criteria | Fix when it breaks | Preventive maintenance |
|---|---|---|
| Downtime | Unplanned, at the busiest moment | Planned, at a production-friendly time |
| Cost | Major part replacements | Small, predictable expenses |
| Spare parts | Emergency sourcing, long waits | Stock planned in advance |
| Product quality | Deviations before failure | Consistently stable quality |
| Equipment life | Rapid wear | Extended service life |
What does robot maintenance involve?
Robot maintenance involves checking and changing gearbox oil, replacing controller and encoder batteries, inspecting cable harnesses and connectors, testing brakes and safety functions, cleaning fans and filters, and backing up programs and the system.
Does production stop during maintenance?
Production loss is kept to a minimum, because we schedule maintenance around your production plan, on weekends, between shifts or during planned shutdowns.
Do you provide a report after maintenance?
Yes. After every maintenance visit we provide a written report covering the work performed, the risks identified and recommendations for the next maintenance.
