Modernization of equipment

Modernization of equipment This is a complex organizational and technical event that is carried out at an industrial enterprise when external and internal factors affecting production efficiency change.

The purpose of modernization of technological equipment at the enterprise is to achieve technical-economic and qualitative indicators of products, promotion of goods or development of new markets.

Modernization of technological equipment is associated with the emergence of new systems of control, control and coordination of production processes using electronic computing and other complexes.

Reasons for modernization of industrial enterprises:

Types of upgraded equipment:

The need for modernization determines one or a set of reasons, which determines the degree of depth of modernization. Errors of modernization of enterprises arise due to the incompetence of project developers.

Types of modernization

Partial modernization is carried out in respect of units or elements of equipment with minimal delay in the production cycle and does not affect the range of products. Cases of partial modernization include the replacement of the belt conveyor with a vacuum or the replacement of individual units of processing equipment. Properly planned and organized work will exclude or minimize the decrease in the volume of current production.

Deep or complex modernization of enterprises leads to qualitative changes in the technological process, an increase in output and an improvement in product quality. A change in the nomenclature or a radical change in the direction of production leads to a halt in production or a significant decrease in the volume of output of replaceable products. The need to fit new equipment into the existing construction structure, taking into account the location of communications and lifting mechanisms, significantly complicates the development of the project. The amount of organizational and technical measures necessary to implement this process is comparable to the creation of a new production.

In the case of a multithreaded production process of manufacturing the same type of products, it is possible to carry out a deep modernization using partial technologies (sequential modernization). To do this, the equipment of one of the lines or sets of equipment is replaced, without stopping the rest.
 

Methodology and stages of equipment modernization

The sequence of procedures used in the decision-making process on modernization and its implementation is not novel, but the problems are hidden in the details. The development of the project is carried out by the enterprise on its own or entrusts this work to specialized organizations. To do this, a design task is created, which includes the basic indicators of the modernized production or equipment.

In the process of preparation and modernization, two interrelated types of work are distinguished: organizational and technical.

Organizational work is associated with the development of a strategy for the modernization of industrial production, the structure of which includes network schedules for the implementation of technical stages of work, including preliminary design, inspection of building structures and engineering systems of the building. The implementation of these schedules is the key to the successful completion of the process.

Technical works include dismantling of equipment, preparation of sites, rigging of equipment and delivery to the installation site, installation and commissioning of new equipment. The complex of works is carried out on the basis of a network schedule, which determines the control points of the progress of work.
 

Selection of equipment

The equipment is selected according to the specified parameters of productivity and economic efficiency. Attention is paid to the completeness of the technical documentation for the equipment, as there may be requirements that are not provided by the structural features of the building. At this stage, the preliminary layout of the equipment is carried out, the study of the possibility of connecting it to communications with minimal costs and the creation of logistics chains for moving products and other shopping centers inside the production. Also, the possibility of delivery of equipment to the installation site is checked, the dimensions of gate openings, the availability and possibility of using own or borrowed lifting equipment are specified.
 

Dismantling of equipment

The tactics of dismantling the equipment are determined by the type of modernization. Selective and bush dismantling is used during partial modernization. Comprehensive modernization allows continuous dismantling, which facilitates the implementation of the entire cycle of work on the preparation of sites for equipment or the dismantling of one of the production lines (group of equipment) in multi-threaded production of the same type.
 

Installation and commissioning of equipment

Installation works are carried out according to the network schedule, in which the sequence and timing of installation are established. This approach allows commissioning of line elements or equipment units in parallel with installation, which reduces the time of project implementation. At the end of the work, the act of delivery and acceptance and a package of documentation are signed.
