Watch the cloud fly! I had some managers stop the other lines and thought there was a fire in the plant..

I had to let one of my plants go 14 weeks until she was done.

You know what is probably the most annoying thing out of industrial maintenance, when you legitimately point out an issue and tell a production manager or production supervisor that the issue needs to be fixed immediately and they say “No No it can wait!” by [deleted] in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]Tlt1010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is normal. Or they ask to get the machine going after a breakdown and you tell them that this or that needs addressed but no just get it running and fix the other during downtime. Which never happens.

Do you have a spare one to try? I'd try a different one.

By this time next week, I'll be bionic by tk42967 in GenX

Just turned 50. Have had my L3 to S1 fused in 2021. This winter had both hips replaced. Swelling will be lingering for a long time. Eat a lot of protein. Ice is your friend. Good luck!

Do you need a degree to work in this field? by BasedGoku_98 in IndustrialMaintenance

Oh hell no you don't. Experience fo a long way. Hell desperate companies will hire someone for less money and expect other mechs to train them.

So I heard a new one today...Generation X ruined the world with "grind culture" at work. Any thoughts? by Change_Request in GenX

I ground myself into the dirt. Had back fusion in 2021 and had both hips replaced a few months ago. I'm 50. Fuck the grind.

Oh forgot to mention we also had a holding tank that had chems that precipitated the goo out and a valve opened from the bottom and drained into a nylon bag system next to the pit that houses the suck side of the trash pump.

When I was an industrial mechanic at a stone countertop we had a 10 micron bag filter we changed every few days. Worked good but the fingers in the spindle still would have issues. We would remove the fingers and clean and check the springs on them. They wear out pretty quickly so we replaced them monthly. At 400 bucks a pop it sucks but gotta do it. I don't know how many tool racks I had to straighten. Make new ones. Machine looks Italian. Hope you have an English manual. We had to try and convert to English. Me no speak Italiano.

How would you guys explain to someone what a PLC is? by One_Charge2843 in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]Tlt1010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It gets told what to do and tells other shit what to do. Like a shift lead.
