Decatur Industrial Saves Customer $40,000
The ability to recognize small problems before they become large ones is crucial.
Decatur Industrial Reliability Specialists are prepared to do just that for our customers.
Whether you have new employees not yet trained (the case in this situation) or employees unfamiliar with the more technical aspects of the equipment, we are here to help. Recently, on a preventative maintenance inspection route at a large paper mill, our Reliability Specialist found one of the motors to be running extremely hot.
Upon closer inspection, he found the external blower was not operating. He engaged the appropriate staff member and together they fixed the problem to cool off the motor before the imminent failure occurred.
If this issue had not been identified the motor shortly would have overheated and ran to failure, causing expensive production downtime. This customer saved a rewind and other work costing upwards of $40,000 in repair.
