Frequently asked questions

What should I do if I find damaged cables during my weekly inspection?

Document the issue immediately in the maintenance record section of your checklist. Tag the equipment as potentially unsafe, notify your supervisor, and ensure the cables are replaced before the machine is used again. Damaged cables present both safety hazards and can affect weld quality, so addressing this promptly is essential.

What should I include when recording maintenance or repairs?

Note the date, specific issue identified, actions taken to address it, and any replacement parts used. Be specific about which component had problems and who performed the repair. This creates valuable history for troubleshooting recurring issues and helps with budgeting for spare parts and maintenance resources.

How can I make the weekly checklist process more efficient in our busy workshop?

Incorporate the checklist into your standard operating procedures by scheduling a specific time each week dedicated to equipment inspection. Keep necessary testing tools organized in one location. Train multiple team members on the inspection process to ensure continuity. Lumiform also streamlines documentation and following up on identified issues.
