The Preventive Maintenance Programme
Daily Inspections
Every operator should perform visual checks before use:
- Oil and fluid levels
- Track and tyre condition
- Hydraulic system function
- Indicators and alarms
Weekly Maintenance
- Air and fuel filter checks
- Cooling system inspection
- Hydraulic pressure verification
- Lubrication of critical points
Monthly and Quarterly Services
- Oil and filter changes
- Vibration analysis
- Electronics and software checks
- Full structural inspection
Predictive Maintenance Technologies
Modern machinery integrates IoT sensors that monitor in real time:
- Engine temperatures
- Hydraulic pressures
- Abnormal vibrations
- Consumption and performance metrics
This data makes it possible to predict failures before they occur, scheduling interventions at the optimal moment.
Costs vs Benefits
Investing in preventive maintenance costs on average 15% more than corrective maintenance, but delivers:
- 40% reduction in machine downtime
- 25% increase in productivity
- 30% reduction in total cost of ownership
- Higher residual value at resale
