This Machine Fault Report template helps teams quickly capture and investigate equipment issues. Record machine model, serial number, location, issue type, and whether a replacement part is required. Classify the defect group and type (electrical, mechanical, alignment, cracked, damaged, leaking, missing part, wiring, and more). Describe the fault, note suspected root cause, and list faulty part numbers with photos. Track sale and fail dates, daily usage, continuous vs. intermittent hours, and the operating environment. Include industry context and actions for factory notification and remediation to streamline maintenance and reduce downtime.
