Discussion on the Maintenance Mode of Railway Rolling Stock in Metallurgical Enterprises
In the"five-system supporting"management system centered on operation head,the key point of the equipment system management is the"point inspection and periodical repair system".This mode makes emphasis on"paying equal attention to multilevel point inspection and condition-based maintenance",aims to optimize the equipment maintenance strategy and improve the operation efficiency and safety through fine management and timely monitoring.For metallurgical enterprises,their own railway rolling stock as internal transport equipment is in charge of reception of raw materials,transit of finished and semi-finished products,so their operational condition is directly related to the operation efficiency and the cost efficiency of the whole logistics.Currently,most of metallurgical enterprises still use the conventional maintenance mode of"daily inspection assisted by periodical maintenance"which presents increasing limitations in the face of the increasing transport demand thanks to the State's policy of"shifting transport from road to railway",for example,low speed of response,high cost of maintenance,waste of resources,etc.Based on this situation,the article takes HBIS Tangsteel Co.,Ltd.for example,analyzes the current maintenance system for its own railway rolling stock,points out the existing problems and discusses about the necessity and the feasibility of introducing the condition-based maintenance mode.
