OEM technical manual and LOTO protocol on your mobile in 3 seconds.

Yes. IgeraIndustria indexes all OEM technical manuals, maintenance procedures and equipment documentation so technicians can query them from any mobile device on the factory floor. No need to go back to the office or search paper binders. A technician can ask “How do I replace the bearing on the Siemens 1LE0 motor?” and get the exact OEM procedure with torque specs, tools required and safety precautions in under 3 seconds. Documents are indexed by equipment tag, brand, model and failure type for fast retrieval during breakdowns.

When a technician requests a lockout/tagout procedure, IgeraIndustria retrieves the specific LOTO protocol for that equipment from the internal procedure library and supplements it with legal requirements from RD 614/2001 (electrical risks) and internal safety standards. The response provides numbered steps: energy identification, isolation points, lockout application order, verification of zero energy state, work execution and reinstatement sequence. Each step cites the corresponding internal document or regulation so the technician can verify at any time. The system also flags whether a Work Permit is required before starting.

Spare part identification is one of the most time-consuming tasks during a breakdown. IgeraIndustria cross-references the equipment OEM manual, the plant’s internal spare parts catalogue and previous work orders to identify the correct part number, OEM reference, manufacturer code and compatible alternatives. A technician describes the failing component (e.g. “seal for the Grundfos CM3 pump inlet”) and gets the exact OEM part number, stock location and alternative approved references if the primary part is out of stock. This reduces mean time to repair by eliminating manual catalogue searches.

Work Permits are mandatory whenever maintenance activities involve significant energy hazards or high-risk environments. IgeraIndustria applies the plant’s internal Work Permit procedure to determine when a permit is required: work on energised electrical equipment above 50V AC, confined space entry, work at height above 2 metres, hot work near flammable materials, work on pressurised systems, and activities affecting food safety or clean room integrity. The technician provides the equipment tag and task description, and IgeraIndustria confirms whether a permit is required, who must authorise it, and which safety conditions must be verified before work begins.

Effective root cause analysis depends on quality fault data captured at the moment of intervention. IgeraIndustria guides technicians through structured fault registration: equipment tag, failure mode description, symptoms observed, initial diagnostic hypothesis, action taken, parts replaced with references, time to repair and verification test result. This data feeds the CMMS (Computerised Maintenance Management System) and enables pattern analysis — identifying repeat failures, mean time between failures (MTBF) trends and components with abnormal wear rates. A well-structured fault log is the foundation of moving from reactive corrective maintenance to predictive maintenance programmes.

Urgent corrective maintenance (also called breakdown or reactive maintenance) is triggered by an unexpected equipment failure that causes production stoppage or safety risk, requiring immediate intervention. It is the highest priority, highest cost and most disruptive type. Planned maintenance (preventive or predictive) is scheduled based on time intervals, usage hours or condition monitoring data, and is executed during planned downtime windows. The key operational difference is that planned maintenance allows preparation: spare parts pre-ordered, tools ready, Work Permit pre-authorised and technical documentation reviewed in advance. IgeraIndustria supports both: fast OEM manual and LOTO retrieval for urgent interventions, and structured task sheets with procedure references for planned maintenance work orders.
