Abstract

In this study, the process of a parquet enterprise’s transition to preventive maintenance which has been implementing maintenance technique in case of breakdown was investigated. During that transition process, follow up forms for maintenance–repair, breakdown and spare parts were prepared and the implementation processes were followed. At the end of the implementation, it was identified that breakdowns have declined, anxiety and turmoil brought about by breakdowns have been prevented, the life span of the machines soared, labour-borne accidents declined and production quality increased.

Key words: Maintenance, preventive maintenance, enterprise, planning.
