Resumen
This work describes the update of the structure of the maintenance department of a calcium carbonate production plant. This upgrade has been necessary due to the creation of a new production plant. Therefore, the maintenance department must respond to the requirements of the installed technology which, being state-of-the-art, requires special attention and rigor in its implementation. Consequently, a maintenance management system was developed to ensure the proper functioning and maximum operational availability of the plant's state-of-the-art production equipment. Therefore, this document foresees the actions and times required to ensure that the maintenance activities are executed, contemplating occupational health and safety.
On the other hand, the financial analysis was considered for the allocation of economic resources. A detailed analysis was made of the operating costs to guarantee the execution of the maintenance plan. In this analysis, the complete structure of the maintenance department was considered, and the creation of job positions was proposed to cover the technical and internal support needs of the maintenance department. A hierarchical structure is configured, where the head of the maintenance department manages and designates activities with plant personnel and external collaborators such as specialists in industrial goods and services.
It makes use of information, generated in modern machines by sensors, for the design of the preventive maintenance plan. As a result, management indicators for operation and continuous improvement of the maintenance department can be improved and monitored. Finally, the collected data are processed with a computer-aided maintenance management system (CMMS). The use of technological techniques is an integral part of the maintenance plan, which is supported by the acquisition of information from equipment and industrial control elements. This information is integrated in the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, which with the correct handling of the data will allow to obtain the maximum utilization of the plant equipment.
