Upcoming Webinars
Building & Maintaining A Best-In-Class CMMS – Perspective From A Former Implementer
Wednesday, August 20, 2025 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT
This webinar will cover key best practices and common pitfalls when implementing a new CMMS or improving an existing one to better serve your business. We’ll share real-world examples from implementations that succeeded—and those that didn’t—explaining why. We’ll also discuss what it takes to sustain a CMMS once it’s in place and common issues that prevent maintenance teams from using it effectively. Finally, we’ll explore how to build and execute a long-term CMMS vision without getting lost in non-essential data or reports.
Speaker:
Christian Amland, Senior Solutions Engineer
Christian Amland has been with Fluke Reliability and eMaint for over 7 years, serving in roles including Product Trainer, Implementation Specialist, Customer Success Manager, and Senior Solutions Engineer. He previously worked at Gartner as an Account Manager advising on tech adoption. With this diverse background, he offers a practical view of what an effective CMMS should look like—and how to avoid shelfware.
Stop the Hidden Spend: The True Price of Machine Misalignment
Wednesday, September 3, 2025 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT
This presentation explores how precision laser alignment significantly reduces the hidden costs of power consumption in industrial settings. By ensuring optimal alignment of rotating machinery, facilities can minimize energy losses, reduce wear and tear, and enhance overall operational efficiency. The session will feature two real-world case studies backed by empirical data, demonstrating measurable cost savings and performance improvements achieved through laser alignment. Attendees will gain insights into the financial and environmental benefits of adopting this technology.
Speakers:
Deron Jozokos, President of Shoreline Reliability and Shoreline Industrial Products
With over 22 years of experience in precision maintenance technologies. A recognized expert in PRUFTECHNIK laser alignment systems, Deron has built a reputation for excellence in field service, technical training, and advanced alignment solutions. He has trained more than 1,000 students in precision alignment, vibration analysis, and predictive maintenance—equipping maintenance teams across industries to boost operational efficiency and equipment reliability.
Deron is the inventor of the patented NoRoll™ static turbine alignment method, a groundbreaking solution that uses the ROTALIGN system to eliminate the traditional 16-point alignment check. This innovation reduces turbine outage downtime, delivering significant time and cost savings. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Facilities and Plant Engineering from the Massachusetts Maritime Academy and remains at the forefront of industrial reliability through technical leadership and education.
Maximizing OEE & Asset Lifespan Through Adaptive Alignment
Wednesday, September 10, 2025 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT
Misalignment is a silent killer of industrial machinery, responsible for over 50% of premature failures. While energy savings have traditionally been the focus, the real game-changer lies in boosting Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and extending asset lifespan. This presentation explores how Adaptive Alignment—powered by advanced laser technology and cloud-enabled analytics—reduces unplanned downtime, enhances reliability, and delivers measurable ROI through:
- 30%+ improvement in OEE by minimizing vibration-induced failures.
- Doubling bearing and seal life, slashing maintenance costs.
- Data-driven insights to predict and prevent alignment drift.
Discover how you can turn alignment from a maintenance task into a strategic asset optimization tool.
