Spare parts are interchangeable items that are used for repair or replacement purposes. They are often a practical addition to purchases of machinery; in the case of equipment failure a long shutdown can be easily avoided by having the right spare part available. The failure of a single screw can have a critical impact.

Agriculture is a source of livelihood for workers, it contributes to national revenue and is significant to international trade and food security. Nordfarm Maskin AB is a Swedish company which distributes and wholesales agricultural machinery and equipment. Machinery such as tractors, produce sorters and harvesters are integral to agricultural tasks.

Agricultural mechanization increases productivity, reduces operation time, and increases income. Thus, the stable functioning and development of agricultural systems is heavily reliant on the efficient operation of machines. A system failure which cannot be remedied within short notice can have serious ramifications- in that produce quality and distribution times are notably impacted. Spare parts from Nordfarm Maskin AB can be found online: sold through webparts.

Common causes of equipment failure include improper operation, no preventive maintenance and failure to monitor equipment. An effective inventory control strategy includes having sufficient numbers of appropriate spare parts in supply so that downtime for routine maintenance and repairs is minimized. Purchasing spare parts such as screws, bolts and even more specialised components can reduce costs in the long run. However, overspending on spare parts should be avoided to fully experience the financial benefits.

In the instance that a monitoring session indicates an existing failure or an impending one, it is important for workers to have easy access to the spare parts. All parts in inventory should be systematically identifiable, and ideally centralised.

Spare parts are essential items, despite the fact that many of them may not even be used for some time after their initial purchase.
