Definitions
 Equipment: Tooling or machineries used to manufacture or test the product including
controlled environment systems
 Preventive Maintenance System: A system that schedule and documents the preventive
maintenance activity required on process equipment
 Preventive Maintenance Procedure: A description of required action to be performed on
equipment
 Preventive Maintenance: Scheduled equipment review, adjustment or repair to maintain
equipment at optimum operating condition.
 Preventive Maintenance Coordinator: An employee that responsible to ensure the preventive
maintenance activities are performed at the appropriate times.

Responsibilities/ Authority

Engineering & Maintenance Department

 Responsible for ensuring equipment is entered into PM systems and for development and updates of
preventive maintenance procedures
 Reviews preventive maintenance requests, unscheduled maintenance and repairs and related form
approvals.
 Review and approves all preventive maintenance documentation.
 Executes required preventive maintenance at the scheduled times
General Guidelines

Preventive Maintenance System (Preventive Maintenance Checklist)

1. Frequency: Daily
 Electrical: Turn on the machine, using different sizes of test peace, do sensitivity testing based
on the QA SOP.
 Mechanical: Using clean rags, clean all the surface of the machine including side walls
 Releasing of Maintained Equipment
 Equipment and machines that has been pre-inspected, repaired and maintained
shall be endorsed back to production before use.
 Machines shall be seen operating accordingly upon endorsement.
 Production supervisor/operator shall only accept machines that are in optimum
condition.
 Fill up Maintenance Form No.13.0 – Return to Operate checklist

2. Frequency: Weekly
 Mechanical: Using clean rags. Clean belt conveyor surface.

3. Frequency: Monthly
 Electrical: By using Ammeter, check the current of conveyor. Conveyor current must be less than 2
amp

4. Frequency: Quarterly
 Mechanical: Check the machine level

5. Frequency: Semi Annual

 Mechanical
o Check the roller bearing condition of the conveyor. Replace it if necessary.
o Check belt condition including tension.

6. Frequency: Annual
 Electrical: calibration of sensitivity to be done by third party.
 Mechanical
o Check the entire body of the machine, do welding on any possible cracks
o Do greasing of bearings
o Check all the tightness bolts and screws
o Using the Maintenance Form, no,10.0, put a check on the box correspond to the said activity
o Using the Maintenance Form 10.1. record all the details of the said activity.

Purpose

To document the preventive maintenance procedure of manufacturing equipment and machineries.

General Guidelines

Preventive Maintenance System: Maintenance form No. 7.0 (Preventive Maintenance Checklist)

1. Frequency: Daily

Electrical:
 Check wiring connections including integrity and condition
 Turn On the circuit breaker.
 Press start button and check the reaction of magnetic contactor (the magnetic contactor will turn on).
 Press the stop button and check the reaction of magnetic contactor (the magnetic contactor will turn
off)
 While checking the button, conduct sound checking of contactor mechanical parts

Mechanical.
 Engine and spring support condition
 Rubber holder of screen condition

Releasing of Maintained Equipment

 Equipment and machines that has been pre-inspected, repaired and maintained shall be
endorsed back to production before use.
 Machines shall be seen operating accordingly upon endorsement.
 Production supervisor/operator shall only accept machines that are in optimum condition.
 Fill up Maintenance Form No.13.0 – Return to Operate checklist

2. Frequency: Weekly

Electrical: Open the control panel and using compress dry air, blow the accumulating dust/ power
inside
Mechanical: Check mechanical parts integrity
3. Frequency: Monthly

Electrical: using contact cleaner, spray all electrical connection including screws and contact point
mechanical
parts of magnetic contactors

Mechanical: Check screen appearance. replace the screen if damage or any possible string
detachment from
the edge

4. Frequency: Quarterly

Electrical: Using Ammeter, turn on the machine and check the running current, current must be not
greater than 7 amperes.

Mechanical: Turn on the machine and check the unusual sound involving vibrator bearing.

5. Frequency: Semi Annual

Electrical: Turn off the main breaker and do screw tightening of control contacts.

6. Frequency: Annual

Electrical: Turn off the main breaker and do wire condition checking.

Mechanical
