Run routine maintenance checks on production and plant equipment from a phone or tablet. Record readings against limits, photograph wear and leaks, and follow every fault through to a verified fix, with the full history kept against each machine.
Scheduled checksReadings vs limitsAsset historyVerified fixes
The Equipment Maintenance Inspection App gives maintenance teams one place to record the routine checks that sit between services: condition and wear, lubrication and fluid levels, belts, chains, and couplings, readings against limits, and whether safety devices still work after a repair. Each check is tied to a specific machine through its QR tag, so the record builds into a maintenance history that anyone can review before the next job.
When a check fails, the fault is logged with a photo and becomes a corrective action with an owner and a due date. Readings outside your limits prompt follow-up questions straight away. Supervisors see overdue checks, open faults, and repeat problems by line or site, and where you run a CMMS, findings can be passed across as work orders through an integration rather than retyped.
What the App Should Cover
A useful equipment maintenance check covers the machine and its location, condition and wear on key components, lubrication and fluid levels, belts, chains, and couplings, readings such as temperature, vibration, or pressure against limits, a check that guards and safety devices work after service, photos of any defect, the technician's sign-off, and corrective actions for anything that fails.
How to Use Equipment Maintenance Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps equipment maintenance inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Scan the machine's QR tag to open its maintenance checklist and recent history.
Check condition, lubrication, and wear, and record readings against the limits in the checklist.
Photograph any leak, worn part, or damage and note what you found.
Raise a corrective action for each fault with an owner and a due date.
Sign off the check so it is added to the machine's maintenance history.

How Equipment Maintenance Inspection App Runs an Equipment Maintenance Inspection
Step 1
Open the Machine Record
A QR scan opens the machine's checklist and its recent checks and faults.
Step 2
Check and Record
Technicians record condition, lubrication, and readings against limits, with photos of anything worn or leaking.
Step 3
Follow Every Fault
Faults become actions with owners and due dates, and overdue work escalates to the supervisor.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an equipment maintenance inspection app?
It is a mobile app for the routine maintenance checks that keep production and plant equipment running between services. With InspectWrk, technicians scan a machine's QR tag, check condition, lubrication, and wear, record readings against your limits, and photograph anything that needs attention. Each fault becomes a corrective action with an owner and due date, and every completed check adds to the machine's maintenance history, so the next technician can see what was found and fixed before they start work.
Which readings and checks can technicians record?
The checklist follows your own procedures, so it can include whatever your machines need. Common items are condition and wear of key components, lubrication and fluid levels, belts, chains, and couplings, and readings such as bearing temperature, vibration, pressure, or current. Readings are compared with the limits you set, and a value outside range prompts follow-up questions immediately. Checks can also confirm that guards and safety devices work after a repair, so the machine returns to service in a safe condition.
How are faults followed up?
Every failed item becomes a corrective action with a named owner and a due date. The owner receives reminders, and actions that pass their due date escalate to the maintenance supervisor. An action closes only when the fix is recorded with evidence, such as a photo or a new reading. Supervisors can see open faults, overdue actions, and repeat problems on the same machine, which helps them decide where a deeper repair or a change to the service schedule is needed.
Does it replace our CMMS?
No. InspectWrk handles the inspection side of maintenance: the routine checks, readings, evidence, and fault follow-up. Your CMMS can keep work orders, spare parts, labour, and costs. Where you run a CMMS, findings from a check can be passed across as work orders through an integration, so nobody retypes them, and your team keeps using the system it already has for planning and stores. Many plants use both, with InspectWrk as the record of what technicians actually checked on the shop floor.
Does the app work offline on the shop floor?
Yes. Technicians can complete checks on a phone or tablet in plant rooms, basements, or remote areas with no signal. Readings, photos, and sign-offs are stored on the device and sync automatically when the connection returns. The machine's QR tag still opens the right checklist offline, so work does not stop because of poor coverage, and supervisors see the results as soon as the device reconnects. This keeps the maintenance record complete even on the parts of a site where coverage is weakest.
