Any single machine in an operating system has a schedule of preventive maintenance even your cell phone and laptop, I personally worked for food industries for over 18 yrs main points to focus are

planning- safety precautions-issuing  work orders - completion of work orders-

 for breakdowns when the machine stops, the above route should be followed

We were using   very advanced software

 one is Pragma on Key 4

 and the other is Sage

 kindly google for these two soft wares and  you will find a satisfying answer to your question

Dear Michael,  Maintenance is a multi-disciplinary area involving many stake holders' conflicting interests. It has become more complex with continuous technological development and changes, especially in the area of diagnostics and prognostics for a real time monitoring, control and decision making under a very competitive dynamic business scenarios. There are few books on maintenance best practices, but what you are asking is the maintenance manuals which the organization prepare for undertaking maintenance activities. What is good for an organization will not be good for another as each organization is unique and different. One need to follow the best practices and maintenance manuals from some of the successful organization and develop your own manuals. One good document to follow for the maintenance manual will be ISO 55000-Asset Management.
