Machine Maintenance Log
Admin
Log what a tech did to a named machine — hours, parts, and whether it is back in service.
A grease-pencil note on a panel disappears on the next shift. This template records the machine, the hours, and whether it is back in service so the next tech does not repeat the same guess.
Who it is for
Maintenance leads in small shops without a CMMS they actually open.
When to use it
Fill it before the tech leaves the aisle. Shop Purchase Order is the part buy. Parts Return Request is a bad part going back. Workplace Incident is a person getting hurt.
What this form collects
Tech identity, machine tag, date, hours, status, the work note, and optional parts used.
- End-of-shift close
- Contractor visit on a named press
- Weekend call-in that still needs a Monday log

Frequently asked questions
Is this a CMMS?
No. It is a log you can export. If you later buy a CMMS, keep this as the phone-friendly fallback.
Should operators fill this?
They can log a symptom in the work note. Keep a tech name so you know who signed the status.
Where do photos of the failure go?
Add a file field after you clone it. Optional, because oily gloves and a dead signal are real.
