Lifecycle Programs | Production Systems Life Cycle

Seattle, WA --Jobwerx News -- People will make their purchases where they are offered economic products and top-class services. This ancient virtue is as true as ever before. Nobody knows their production systems better than the original equipment manufacturer.

Managing the life cycle of your plant in the long term, takes good planning and predictive maintenance which is much less expensive than poorly thought-out acquisitions and unplanned maintenance.

There are a couple of recently launched programs designed to help plant managers get the most from their equipment. Here is some insight.

Bühler AG offers customized care in the fields of automation, process, training, and service. Their program helps customers decide which production system to invest in, how implement it and how to maintain and enhance its value.

Decision-Making Phase

Buhler says that customers’ needs and their investment decision-making criteria are as varied as the customers themselves. Once a customer has decided to spend money on a new machine or production system, Buhler will develop different plant concepts, show the advantages and disadvantages of the various machines, and help the customer select the system best suited to his specific purposes. If a process is to be changed, Buhler will establish feasibility studies showing the benefits and drawbacks of the different casting processes, supplying a valuable basis for evaluation of the most economic process.

This phase combines the automation system, the die casting machine, the peripheral equipment – furnace, spray unit, robot, trimming press, belt conveyors, and exhaust hoods – into a smoothly functioning casting cell.

Implementation Phase:

Once the customer has decided which plant concept will offer him the greatest benefits and highest profitability, the management will have a clear picture of the future plant.

Experienced Buhler service engineers will install and start up the new manufacturing systems. Every start-up is completed by CE certification by Buhler.

Their global program also contains a training component. Machine maintenance and set-up crews can receive instruction on hydraulics, electrical engineering, and set-up, and operation and maintenance of the peripheral equipment can be undertaken.
