Forest Products
In an ongoing effort to remain competitive in the lumber and forestry industry, processes and maintenance procedures become increasingly important to have. Lumber mills manufacture lumber for homes and building and must confirm to strict specifications to remain competitive. Thus, the machines and equipment they use must be in good operating condition.
Using Maintenance Connection's simple, easy-to-use web-based application can help your Forest Products Company increase asset life, track maintenance costs, prevent and predict asset failures, improve labour productivity, reduce costly downtimes, minimise investments in inventory, and lower the total cost of maintenance.
Forest Products Companies can set up maintenance procedures and preventative maintenance schedules for facilities and equipment such as the following:
 Mills |
Planers |
Saw and Saw Blades |
| Blowers |
Feeders |
Debarker |
| Conveyer |
Trimmers |
Stackers |
| Rip Saws |
Screens |
Chippers |
