Supply spare parts

Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Manufactures and sells finished products such as pumps, valves, compressors, vessels, etc., for which OEM s also supply spare parts.

MaintainabiUty is a characteristic of design, installation, and operation, usually expressed as the probabiUty that a system can be restored to specified operable conditions within a specified interval of time when maintenance is performed in accordance with prescribed procedures. The ease of fault detection, isolation, and repair are all influenced by system design and are principal factors contributing to maintainabiUty. Also contributing is the supply of spare parts, the supporting repair organization, and preventative maintenance practices. MaintainabiUty must be designed into the equipment. Some factors to consider foUow. 

Except in the case of a planned overhaul, spare parts will only be wanted in an emergency, and then in a hurry. Most manufacturers can guarantee supplies from their own stocks and will despatch quickly, providing they are given enough information to correctly identify the parts required. 

Although it might be tempting to use the "free space" in switchgear, boiler, compressor, and other equipment rooms for the storage of brooms, paint, drawings and manuals, spare parts, and various other utility and maintenance supplies, it is essential to resist such practices. Suitable broom closets, spare parts storerooms, and utility rooms should be constructed for such storage. 

The vendor recommended that at least 6100 worth of spare parts be maintained in stock. Some of these items included TPU-116 liner, single pack (burner, air inlet filter assembly, packed-tower filling material, and a hydraulic hose-packed tower water supply). During the 3-month trial, 4510 worth of replacement parts were used. These replacement parts were a... 

As provider of Chemical Leasing services PERO Innovative Services was able to include in the project all peripheral devices necessary for the supply, reconditioning, recovery and maintenance of the chemicals. The equipment was engineered based on the principle of cost reduction with regard to chemicals consumption, energy consumption, supply of spare parts and service. The solvent and the stabilisers used were adapted to the specific cleaning needs of Automobiltechnik Blau. 

Information such as yield, energy consumption or personal costs helps to overview a process continuously during operation and to deal with spare parts and raw materials. This so-called supply chain management is now widely accepted. The predominant supplier of business software SAP claims to have given more 21 000 licenses to companies which use their management tools for business and production management [27]. 

Special costs. Special costs include land, spare parts, inspection, project management, chemicals, miscellaneous supplies, and office and laboratory furniture. For preliminary estimates, these costs can be estimated as 4% of the cost of the process units, storage, steam systems, cooling water systems, and offsites. Engineering costs and contractor fees are included in the various individual cost items. 

Indirect cost. Indirect cost includes a large list of varied supporting equipment, utilities, and land for the modular major equipment cost method proposed herein. These items are commonly called offsites, which include cost of such items as roadways, land, buildings, warehouses, spare parts, maintenance shops, and electric power and water utilities. In addition to offsites, the indirect cost also includes the field-erection equipment, such as erection cranes, temporary construction buildings, welding supplies, and trucks. All of these items are necessities for the major equipment modules. 

Maintenance is a vital component of all pilot plant and plant manufacturing operations. Any organization that strives to meet deadlines for the preparation of clinical supplies and commercial APIs requires a plant that ideally does not break down. To achieve this, all responsible managements require a strong, well-staffed maintenance department that has the trained manpower, budget, spare parts, mission, and organization to keep the plant operating. 

If a chemical plant decides to operate an in-house SRV test and repair program, it must have the necessary resources. Essential resources include test equipment with a sufficient volume of gases to simulated process conditions, factory-trained mechanics, a supply of spare parts, an up-to-date Quality Control Manual, and perhaps the approval of local or... 

Storage of maintenance items should be identified early in the design process. Spare-parts storage, janitorial supply storage, janitors sink closets, repair work shops,... 

A typical layout of a palm oil mill is shown in Figure 7 where the main stations of the process are also indicated. The equipment selected has to be carried out with care in order to obtain the correct balance for throughput, steam consumption, energy demands, and economics of the supply of stand-by equipment. Standardization of equipment is an important point to consider when selecting machinery on the basis of within mill and between mills when applicable. When a set range and/or make of equipment can be chosen (e.g., valves, gearboxes, electric motors and starts, etc.), considerable benefits can accrue by way of a reduction in the amount of spare parts to be carried. 

Service access to system utilities is an important design consideration. Routine calibration, maintenance, and repair are integral parts of maintaining a GMP facility. Areas to store critical spare parts and supplies should be included.

A new methodology designed to optimize both the planning of preventive maintenance and the amount of resources needed to perform maintenance in a process plant is presented. The methodology is based on the use of a Montecarlo simulation to evaluate the expected cost of maintenance as well as the expected economic loss, an economical indicator for maintenance performance. The Montecarlo simulation describes different failure modes of equipment and uses the prioritization of maintenance supplied, the availability of labour and spare parts. A Genetic algorithm is used for optimisation. The well-known Tennessee Eastman Plant problem is used to illustrate the results. 

The local site inventories of control system spares are specified to be at least 10 percent of the installed base, with a minimum of two for each replaceable part. However, sites are maintaining their own supplies of additional noncertified control system spare parts and this is not well coordinated with the central spares control system at Rockwell Automation. The spares inventory control systems vary from site to site, and the committee noted that there is no comprehensive accounting of the inventory levels of spares, nor of the testing and certification status of spares, at some sites. This can result in program inefficiencies and cost penalties.

A purchasing agent decides to use a different vendor to supply a critical spare part. 

Yet, in practice, even greater complexities may exist. For example, the repair of Pump P-IOIA may require a particular spare part if the facility warehouse has only a limited supply of that part, it may run out. Then, if the pump fails, the repair time will include the time it takes to order and ship the new part. Once more, such complexities are quite impossible to handle with deterministic models, yet stochastic models can incorporate them quite readily.
