Asset Care Improves Reliability

at Trader Media

 

 

“By creating simple visual running tasks, you can help
prevent the onset of failure
without having to stop the machine - our unplanned
downtime has decreased by
20% which is very significant.”


Neil Harris, Production Planning Manager

“Before EMS came to us we had
a system in place which was
meant to improve reliability, but it
just didn’t seem to be making
enough of a difference.”

“EMS proposed the asset care
programme and helped us through
setting up the system and
implementing the changes. It is
a very visual and easy to use
maintenance system and the
process really pulled us together as a team."

 

“We have clearly noticed a
difference in reliability and are
looking forward to using the
same process to increase
reliability throughout the factory.
Having involved the operators it
helps create a sense of
ownership as well as a good
team environment.”
