Conveyor Belt Preventive Maintenance
Conveyor Belt Preventive Maintenance is a scheduled routine that involves inspecting, cleaning, adjusting, and servicing key conveyor components such as belts, pulleys, rollers, motors, and safety systems. This process helps detect wear, misalignment, or mechanical issues early, ensuring smooth material flow and minimizing unexpected breakdowns. Regular PM enhances operational efficiency, extends equipment lifespan, and supports workplace safety by maintaining reliable and consistent conveyor performance.
