Automotive Suppliers

Maintenance management for automotive suppliers with bakimo

On press, mold, robotic welding and assembly lines, an unplanned stop directly threatens delivery commitments in the supply chain. bakimo brings the maintenance issues typically faced by automotive suppliers under one roof.

Automatic downtime detection on press/mold lines

Production data is collected automatically from PLC/Modbus-connected press and mold lines; when a line stops, the system detects it and opens an automatic downtime record, updating machine counters with real data.

Mold/equipment maintenance history

A QR code placed on each mold or piece of equipment instantly brings up its open work order and maintenance history for the technician on the shop floor — giving fast access to fault history during mold changes.

Safety approval workflow (permit-to-work)

For higher-risk work such as robotic welding cells or pressurized equipment, safety approval can be made mandatory before a work order is opened — shop-floor safety is never left out of the process.

Line reliability with MTBF/MTTR

Seeing early which lines have rising fault frequency and lengthening repair times lets you back renewal/investment decisions with data.

Typical equipment and use cases

Mechanical/hydraulic press lines and progressive dies
Robotic welding cells
Assembly line conveyors and torque control equipment
Supplier equipment such as shock absorber, injection and casting units

Frequently Asked Questions

Which packages include PLC/Modbus integration?

PLC/Modbus/RS232 machine connectivity and automatic downtime detection are included in the Pro plan and above.

Can we track tool-change times?

Yes — a tool change is opened as a work order, and its duration and technician are logged; this data also feeds into MTBF/MTTR reports.

How long does setup take?

Since you can import your own machine and maintenance definitions via an Excel template, setup typically takes 2-4 weeks.
