| Equipment Management |
Participants included: David Peritore, owner of Winery Service Connection in Santa Rosa, Calif.; Bruce Edwards, vice president of operations for Scott Laboratories in Petaluma, Calif; Jon Johnson, sales manager for Carlsen and Associates in Healdsburg, Calif and Harvey Gonzalez of Euro-Machines in Fairfield, Calif. The article re-enforced the importance of inspecting and maintaining production equipment after harvest. Bullet Points: - Desiccant bags in control boxes - Inspect press bladders for even tiny holes. - Don't over lubricate your bearings or the bearing seals will fail prematurely causing the bearing to fail prematurely. - Cleaning must pumps properly.... is a rare occurrence. - Cover pump ports to keep rodents and insects out. - NEMA-4 water proof control boxes are not moisture-proof. While ongoing professional maintenance is the route recommended by the round table group, on-site training can also be arranged through Carlsen, Scott Labs and Winery Service Connection. |

| ~ ~ ~ ~ We have been pleased with the thoroughness, quality of service, and attention to detail shown by Winery Service Connection in the Equipment Management Program. We have our de-stemmers, and presses enrolled in the program." Cameron Parry; Winemaker, Chateau Montelena Winery ~~~~ WSC has picked up on aspects that were missed previously in equipment checks. The review and communication have made us more confident going into harvest. Your attention to safety related aspects is appreciated. Since we enrolled in the Equipment Management Program, we have had less production interruptions. Our production line is more reliable than it has been in the past. Bill Batchelor; Winemaker, Martin Ray Winery ~~~~ Winery Service Connection has made my job as a consulting Winemaker a lot easier - facing several different process flow equipment sets over several clients, I could count on Winery Service Connection to keep the wine flowing under any conditions (including some of the toughest I've seen in 25 years of wine growing!).
