Introduction to Preventive Maintenance
Why planned maintenance beats reacting to breakdowns.
Introduction to Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance (PM) is work you do on a schedule to stop failures before they happen — the opposite of waiting for something to break.
The Case for PM
- Fewer unplanned outages and emergency repairs
- Longer asset life
- Safer, more predictable operations
The Trade-off
PM costs time up front. Done right it pays back many times over in avoided downtime — done wrong it becomes busywork.
