The challenges presented by maintenance
Maintenance is essential to guarantee the reliability, safety and performance of industrial facilities. It includes preventative, corrective and predictive actions and requires close supervision.
There are several benefits to maintenance:
- Cost reduction: by minimising unscheduled breakdowns and optimising the use of equipment;
- Improvement in productivity: less unscheduled downtime, which allows for continuous production;
- Prolonging the lifespan of equipment: well-maintained equipment can be used for longer;
- Improvement in safety: by reducing the risks of accidents owing to defective equipment;
- Optimisation of performance: properly-planned maintenance ensures that machines function optimally.
The expertise of Heliatec Ingénierie in maintenance
Heliatec Ingénierie rolls out initiatives to increase equipment reliability and manage the operational maintenance of industrial facilities.
Preventative maintenance
- Regular inspections aim to anticipate breakdowns and the implementation of action plans to prevent potential faults.
- Inspections, replacement of worn parts, cleaning, lubrication, calibration, etc.
Predictive maintenance
- Prediction of equipment failure before it happens, based on an analysis of its condition in real time (vibrations, temperature, pressure, etc.).
- Ongoing monitoring using sensors, data analyses, computer-assisted diagnoses.
Corrective maintenance
- Works following a fault to repair or replace the defective equipment.
- Diagnosis, repair or replacement of parts, recommissioning tests.
Improvement maintenance (or conditional maintenance)
- Improvement in equipment performance depending on its condition and operating history.
- Modifications or upgrading of equipment to increase its performance or reliability.
Mechanical maintenance
- Industrial maintenance: dismantling, expertise, restoring and repair of equipment (pumps, compressors, fans, etc.).
- Rotating machinery: diagnosis of vibrations, alignment, calibration.
- Mechanical maintenance: curative and preventative work.
Electrical & automation maintenance
- Industrial electrical maintenance: troubleshooting, parts replacement, cabling.
- Instrumentation: sensors, transmitters, regulation loops.
- Automation: fault analysis, modification of automated devices (Siemens, Schneider, etc.).
Preventative maintenance and increasing reliability
- Maintenance methods: maintenance ranges, CMMS tools.
- Preparation maintenance: technical and logistics preparation for work.
- Maintenance scheduling: short- and long-term planning (MS Project, Primavera, etc.).
- Reliability (RAMS): fault analysis (FMECA, RCA), plans for increasing reliability.
- Analysis of vibrations / thermal imaging / ultrasound: predictive maintenance.
Support & Supervision maintenance
- Maintenance supervision: supervision of multi-technical works.
- Steering of maintenance: steering teams in critical zones or working with critical equipment.
- Coordination of shutdowns: coordination of maintenance during technical shutdowns.
- Management of maintenance work sites: management of on-site teams.
Steering and management
- Maintenance strategy: budget, performance indicators.
- CMMS / SAP: computerised management of works.
- Project and file management: calculations, contractual monitoring, customer relations.
