Ask FixTrove
A maintenance or troubleshooting question, or a question about this facility's own repair history -- who fixed what, when.
A conversational assistant that actually knows your facility
Ask FixTrove answers two different kinds of questions in the same conversation: general engineering knowledge, and questions about your own facility's confirmed-fix history. It searches real records to answer, not a guess.
- General engineering questions -- ask about anything mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, or controls-related, even if it isn't tied to a specific logged event.
- Facility-history lookups -- "who fixed the Fanuc on second shift last week, and what did they do?" answered from real records.
- Real conversations -- ask a follow-up question and it keeps the context, instead of starting over each time.
- Photo-based part identification -- attach a photo of an unlabeled part and compare it against your own spare-parts catalog.
What it looks like
Who fixed the Haas on second shift last week?
Mike fixed a C-axis homing fault Tuesday, second shift -- reseated a loose home-position sensor bracket.
Did he use a spare part?
No -- it was a mechanical reseat, not a replacement.
Has this happened before?
Yes -- the same fault showed up back in March. That time the sensor itself was actually replaced.
Is this the part that was used?
Yes -- that's the home-position sensor cataloged for the Haas VF-2, part #40-1123, crib location B-2.
Is there a work order for that one?
Yes -- WO-3182.pdf is attached to that March record. You can open it from Asset History.
