WAYS TO IMPROVE OF THE AGRICULTURAL COMPLEX ENGINEERING SYSTEM FOR AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY MAINTENANCE

The need of agricultural producers in services of the engineering system providing technical service throughout all life cycle of agricultural machines can be considered as economically reasonable and necessary engineering activity in agroindustrial complex. The implementation of technological processes of maintenance and recovery parameters of the technical condition of agricultural equipment with appropriate quality is possible only subject to the availability of specialized enterprise engineering systems in agro-industrial complex intelligent technological equipping a specific item. For keeping agricultural equipment in good operating condition and parameters of its technical condition it is necessary to use the full range of repair and service impacts that damage tolerant repair and maintenance. The work suggests measures to improve the engineering and technical system (ITS) in the agro-industrial complex of Russia. It is shown that at present the system is characterized by a weakening in the quantity and quality of the fleet of agricultural machines, which negatively affects the material and technical support of agricultural producers. To positive change of the situation it is proposed as a first-priority measure - the creation of innovative centers for high-quality repair of equipment and its components. Examples of planning of such centers with appropriate resource-saving environmentally oriented utilization of agricultural machinery are given.
