Does Your Vendor Actually Offer You Automated Packaging Solutions?

Making your mind to buy automated machines for your packaging line? Or, have you already bought them? Whatever the scenario is, it's always recommended to have a thorough understanding on how to keep them in the best condition possible.
                                                             

In this blog post, you'll find out the top 3 questions about the maintenance or service programs that should be asked to your vendor.

Do you provide any operator training?

Operator training is helpful not only for the efficient performance of the machine, but also for its maintenance program. Undergoing such training programs let you know the proper functioning of the machine, including how to set up, calibrate and operate it. Moreover, in-depth training comes in handy when it comes to troubleshooting minor mechanical or technical faults then and there.

Do you provide recommendations on the spare parts?

In its simplest definition, a machine is nothing, but a composition of several big or small mechanical and electrical parts. Of course, they serve you at their best, however, they're subject to wear and tear. And with the passage of time, you may even need to repair or replace them. A list of spare parts at the time of purchase is helpful to tell you how often these parts are to be repaired or replaced.

Do you offer some sort of remote support?

You're likely to get automated packaging solutions, if your vendor offers you remote support. Such service is helpful for diagnosing or remedying about 90% of issues with just a single phone call. A remote support service is really a great help, as you can actually fix faults in a hassle-free manner.

The above mentioned questions are just the basic ones. There are more to come that actually depend on your business needs and wants. So, always determine your needs first and then, start looking for the best machines for your packaging line.
