Title: Tips to Reduce Total Cost of Ownership of Food
1Tips to Reduce Total Cost of Ownership of Food
Total cost of ownership is a concern cutting
across many job functions in food processing.
Management tries to restrain operating costs
while growing the business.Â
2Â Dont Over-Lubricate
More is not always better. One of the most common
maintenance pitfalls within food processing is
over-lubrication, which forces companies to
allocate more money than necessary to one area of
maintenance.
3Enhance Food Safety Initiatives
Food quality is key to the success of any food
processor. Purchasing the proper equipment and
lubricants is integral to help processors meet
production goals.
The best way to minimize the TCO of food
processing equipment is through the use of
synthetic, food-grade lubricants.Â
4Minimize Waste Removal
Removing waste is an expense that needs to be
considered when calculating the TCO of food
processing equipment.
Synthetics generally help extend equipment drain
life three to four times over that of a mineral
oil and the right synthetic can drastically
reduce oil disposal.Â
5Â Perform Lubrication Audits
Lubrication Audits provide food processors
detailed maintenance strategies for optimizing
equipment performance.Â
The next step is to monitor the equipment by
identifying critical application areas and
checking for problems that could lead to
unscheduled downtime.Â
