Visitors to the Schaeffler stand will
see a comprehensive range of
products and services for the
maintenance and
condition monitoring
of plant and
machinery. The theme
of the stand is
‘Prevention Is Better
Than Cure’.

Although the cost
of a machine component is very
small compared to the total cost of
the machine, the cost of production
downtime and any consequential
losses as a result of the component
failure, can be significant.Manufacturers
need to ensure that high value
plant and machinery is adequately
insured against the cost
of unforeseen
breakdowns. Schaeffler
suggests using a risk
management approach,
whereby risk
assessments are carried
out regularly to see
what effect breakdowns would have
on critical, bottleneck machines and
equipment. Stand D3
