3 Approaches to Preventive Maintenance of Automated Access Systems

Automated access management solutions are complex technical systems that require periodic inspection and maintenance as well as specialized interventions when needed, otherwise they will not operate within the established parameters.

If, in the case of a passenger elevator, periodic technical inspection ensures its proper functioning, extends its lifespan, and reduces the risk of unpleasant or even dangerous incidents, similarly, in the case of automated access systems, inspection and maintenance prevent and limit problem-causing events, while also reducing additional expenses.

A maintenance contract helps you protect your investment, optimize operational budgets, ensure continuity in activity, and focus on business development by leaving system maintenance to specialists.

When we talk about maintenance, we consider 3 possible approaches:

  1. Preventive maintenance
  2. Predictive maintenance
  3. Corrective maintenance

A preventive maintenance plan aims to prevent equipment failures and maintain them in good working order by replacing worn components before they fail.

In such an approach, periodic checks, partial and/or total inspections are carried out with the frequency established by the manufacturer and at specified intervals, including component replacements, adjustments, lubrication, etc.

Benefits of a Preventive Maintenance Plan

  • FunctionalitySafe operation within parameters of the equipment;
  • Reduced costsLower costs for equipment replacement;
  • Prevention – Reduction of unscheduled accidental interventions;
  • Spare partsOptimized management of spare parts inventory;
  • Optimal budgetingOptimization of operational budgets;
  • Extended lifespanIncrease in equipment lifecycle;

Predictive maintenance contributes to determining the condition of equipment in operation, aiming for precise prediction of maintenance actions. All this means significant cost reductions compared to routine maintenance actions, as they are carried out during equipment operation, thus minimizing functional-operational interruptions.

Corrective maintenance involves intervention for the prompt repair of faults in equipment in operation. The main activities consist of repairing or replacing, as necessary, parts from affected equipment and restoring them to operation.
