Reliability Consulting for Plastics and Rubber Manufacturing
Reliability Consulting solutions tailored for Reliability Consulting for Plastics & Rubber Manufacturing operations.
Context
Challenge & Approach
The Reliability Challenge
Equipment degradation causes quality defects before causing mechanical failure. Standard reliability KPIs (MTBF, availability) miss quality-driven maintenance needs. Maintenance thresholds based on failure proximity allow quality-affecting degradation to continue uncorrected. Scrap costs from equipment degradation often exceed repair costs.
Our Approach
We integrate equipment condition monitoring with product quality data, set maintenance intervention thresholds based on quality impact, develop reliability KPIs correlating equipment health with scrap rate and product consistency, and build maintenance strategies that target quality-protecting equipment condition rather than just failure prevention.
