Troubleshooting Plant Rotating Equipment and Effective Predictive Maintenance Course
Introduction:
Course Objectives:
At the end of this course participants will have:
· An understanding of Machine Failure Analysis and Troubleshooting techniques
· An understanding of a range of Planned & Predictive Maintenance Technologies
· Knowledge of the potential contribution of each these technologies to maintenance efficiency
· Guidelines indicating how these technologies can interact with and support each other
· Hints and Tips for practical application of these technologies so as to achieve the best results
· A practical approach to developing an action plan to utilize these technologies in their own areas of responsibility, fitting them into the overall maintenance strategy, and measuring benefits
· Allow the delegate to carry out analysis of machine failures
· Enable the delegate to develop a proactive maintenance regime within the organization.
· Give the delegate confidence to carry out failure analyses thereby avoiding repetitive failures.
· Allow tighter control of maintenance budgets by the avoidance of unplanned equipment failures in service.
Who Should Attend?
This course is directed towards Supervisors, Team Leaders and Managers in Maintenance, Engineering, and Production. The course will also benefit anyone who wishes to update themselves on Predictive Maintenance Technologies and Failure Analysis techniques, as well as those who have to judge the suitability of these technologies for their needs and learns how to implement them for the benefit of their organizations.
