Establish the operating context
We review when the issue occurs, what changed, which products are affected and what the machine reports. Videos, fault history and operator observations can help identify a useful starting point.

Troubleshooting & optimization
Intermittent stops, inconsistent handling and unstable output often involve more than one cause. We bring a structured approach to diagnosis, considering the interaction between product, mechanical setup, sensors, controls and the surrounding line.
Talk to PrimeGear
Understand the problem before changing the process.
Investigate with controlled changes
The work focuses on observable behaviour and a clear test sequence. Mechanical constraints, settings, product variation and control timing are considered together, with changes documented to avoid losing the original baseline.
Verify the improvement
A short successful run may not represent normal production. We agree a verification period and product range appropriate to the problem, then record the results and any remaining limitations or next steps.
Clear work. Useful outputs.
The final deliverables are agreed in the project scope. Depending on the assignment, they can include:
- Problem definition and initial observations
- Diagnostic findings and actions taken
- Recorded settings or modifications within scope
- Verification results and prioritized recommendations
A useful starting point.
These details help us understand the application and plan the next conversation.
- 01Fault messages, videos and frequency of occurrence
- 02Recent changes to product, settings or equipment
- 03Baseline performance and desired outcome
Good questions to ask.
Can you help with intermittent problems?
Yes. Intermittent issues benefit from a clear history and access to representative production. The investigation scope accounts for the time needed to observe the behaviour.
Will increasing speed always improve output?
No. Useful output also depends on stops, rejects, transfers and recovery time. We assess the process as a whole before recommending changes.
