Equipment Maintenance and Breakdown Logs

Track preventive maintenance cycles and let operators log machine issues instantly through QR-based repair tickets.

The problem

Factories that operate on a run-to-failure model absorb avoidable downtime, idle labor costs, and emergency maintenance pressure when a critical machine suddenly stops.

Implementation

Combine preventive maintenance scheduling with QR-based fault reporting so operators and maintenance teams share the same equipment history.

Workflow steps

  • Track each machine and its required service cycle in one maintenance register.
  • Attach a QR code to every asset so operators can log breakdowns immediately.
  • Store repair notes and maintenance history as a permanent record for each machine.

Expected result

Reduce unplanned downtime, extend machine lifespan, and protect production output before small maintenance issues become line-stopping failures.

Why this works in Norbital

Each step reads and updates the same records. Forms, approvals, automations, and reports do not need separate data copies.
