How the Maintastic CMMS supports maintenance processes in the food and beverage industry
Maintastic is an intuitive, mobile CMMS designed for food manufacturing and beverage production. Planned maintenance, fast issue reporting, and traceable documentation ensure transparent processes and maximum equipment uptime.
Manage assets
Set up locations and asset types. Asset hierarchies, filters, assigned equipment owners, and manufacturer details help you keep your equipment structure easy to manage.
Create tickets & report issues
Report issues with descriptions, images, videos, or simply by voice input directly at the asset.
Schedule maintenance
Plan individual tasks or create recurring series for scheduled maintenance on filling, packaging, and production equipment.
Provide instructions & checklists
Make checklists, inspection reports, or maintenance instructions available for standard operating procedures (SOP).
Complete work orders on the go
With the Maintastic CMMS app, technicians organize, document, and complete work orders on their smartphones.
Integrate into your system landscape
Integrate Maintastic with your existing ERP, MES, or connect it to your IoT platform.
Planning, managing, and monitoring maintenance activities
With the integrated maintenance planner in the Maintastic CMMS, you plan, manage, and monitor maintenance, inspections, and repairs across food manufacturing. This proactive maintenance approach improves equipment uptime and extends the lifecycle of your filling, packaging, and production equipment.
- Plan tasks based on defined time intervals
- Set urgency levels and estimated duration
- Use color-coded status indicators to prioritize work
- Gain day-to-day transparency through filters
- Ensure full traceability via complete equipment history
From paper & Excel sheets to digital maintenance and HACCP-required hygiene documentation
Create reports, checklists, forms, and work instructions digitally in Maintastic. Required fields, predefined selection options, embedded media (images, videos), and smart AI-powered input assistance ensure all relevant information is captured completely and accurately.
Digital defined processes support not only maintenance staff with standardized and documentation-required activities, but also production staff and quality teams in meeting hygiene traceability requirements. This creates streamlined, transparent processes across production, maintenance, and quality assurance.
Use case examples in maintenance
- Maintenance and inspection checklists: e.g., lubrication, filter changes, visual inspections on filling, packaging, and production equipment
- Guided issue diagnostics: standardized error, cause, and corrective steps for frequent issues
- Calibration and test protocols: e.g., temperature, conductivity, or pressure sensors for HACCP-required process steps
- Technical approvals after repairs: functional tests, safety checks, confirmation of equipment recommissioning
- Commissioning and acceptance reports: incoming and outgoing tests, safety functions, documentation of new or modified equipment
Use case examples in production and quality assurance
- Sanitation and hygiene checklists: CIP/SIP approvals, near-line cleaning, allergen changeovers
- Product and format changeover procedures: mechanical adjustments, visual checks, quality approval steps
- Quality checks and line clearance: e.g., after product changeovers, sanitation cycles, or technical interventions
- Start-up and end-of-shift protocols: line startup, visual inspections, production release documentation
- Documentation of quality-critical process steps: e.g., temperature checks, fill-level controls, labeling, and packaging inspections
