by Mike Musclow, from the Community

This start-of-shift maintenance audit is designed for injection molding operations in Bay 2. It guides technicians through mechanical and electrical checks, including oil and lube levels, HYDAC and SVG units, cabinet status, and general cell observations. It also covers material handling mezzanines, dryers, hoppers, hoses, vacuum pumps, and lighting. Use it to verify equipment readiness, spot leaks, and ensure safe, efficient production at the beginning of each shift.
