Production slowdowns are a great time to inventory your critical components to prepare for the coming upswing. Take this time to review your production equipment and consider which components are critical to keep you running. These might include motors, gear units, pumps and large bearings.Check the health of those components, perform any overdue or upcoming maintenance, and build an inventory catalog with equipment details like functional location, component type, manufacturer, model number and serial number. Some components can be difficult to reach, so keep a photo of the nameplate in a binder, maintenance folder or spreadsheet so it can be easily accessed.
