What 物流設備管理・保全 do

An English description is being prepared. Japanese description:

自動化、大型化が進む物流倉庫の設備の管理・保全を行う。マシンキーパーなどと呼ばれることもある。
 物流の世界は現在、大きな変革期にある。3PLの進展などで物流業務の総合化、グローバル化が進展する一方で、ECの利用者増などを受けて物流倉庫の大型化が急ピッチで進んでいる。これに伴って、物流の自動化の動きも顕著で、機能が多能化したさまざまな設備機器を少ない人員で稼働させている。このため、物流機器を安定的に稼働させ、機能を維持するための管理、点検、保守活動の重要性が高まっている。
 設備保全の方法には、故障した機械を修理して稼働できるようにする事後保全(故障発生の都度修理)と機械の点検、修理、部品交換などを計画的に実施する予防保全(故障する前に実施)がある。
 設備の管理・保全の仕事を具体的な作業内容からみると、次の5種類に集約できる。
 「定期的保全」は、出荷設備の機能を最善の状態に保持しながらその使用年数を最大限に保つために、日常の仕事として計画を立てて定期的に行う。
 「受入検査」は、各種の機械や器具、部品などを購入又は受け入れる際に、物流センターの受入基準に合致しているかどうかを検査する。
 「故障箇所の修復」は、運転中の機械が何らかの原因によって故障を起こした場合に、その修復に当たる。故障の原因には色々なケースが考えられるので、そうした原因を分析し、同じ種類の故障が繰り返されることがないよう事前の対策を講じる。
 「機具、部品、用材の管理」は、機械の部品や保全に必要な機具、用材などの保管や手入れを行い、保全作業が効率よく行えるように日頃から管理する。
 「据付、組立、調整」は、機械設備を新設・増設・更新する場合や技能者養成のための実施訓練の場合などに行われる。実際の作業は機械の納入業者やメンテナンス会社に依頼し、物流企業側は確認だけを行う場合が多い。
 仕事を1日の流れでみると、物流センターでの勤務はほとんどが交代制であり、早番の場合は、機械が稼働開始前に出勤して、物流設備が稼働していない時にしかできない、コンベアベルトやモーターなどの点検・交換を行う。設備稼働後は、構内を廻って、機械が動いている時の状況を点検する。異音などの異常がないか自分の目や耳で確認、さらに現場から上がってくる異常報告に対応して、自社でできる範囲の修理・点検は自社内で行い、状況に応じて設備メーカーなどに依頼する。現場を廻るだけでなく、修理用備品の在庫管理と発注、現場改善の企画提案の作成なども行う。必要な備品の在庫状況に注意を払う。必要な事務作業を行い、遅番に引き継ぐ。
