Welding machine maintenance checklist

Customize the checklist by adding equipment-specific sections based on your welder’s manual. For MIG welders, expand the wire feed mechanism section. For TIG welders, add torch and tungsten electrode checks. With Lumiform, you can easily modify the template to include manufacturer-specific maintenance points for your particular equipment.

Keep records of completed checklists alongside repair history, parts replacements, and calibration certificates. This documentation creates an equipment service history that proves compliance during inspections and helps identify recurring issues. Digital maintenance records through Lumiform provide searchable archives that simplify equipment lifecycle management.

This checklist systematically examines failure-prone components like cooling systems, cables, and contact tips before they cause breakdowns. By catching warning signs such as loose connections or coolant leaks, you can address minor issues during scheduled maintenance rather than facing emergency repairs that disrupt production and compromise weld quality.

Integrate this checklist by scheduling maintenance during natural production breaks or shift changes. Train operators to perform quick daily checks while assigning more comprehensive inspections to maintenance personnel. With Lumiform’s digital platform, you can set automated reminders and track completion status, ensuring maintenance becomes a seamless part of your operation.
