When we started, projects were using a variety…
Predictive technologies and condition-based maintenance play a larger role in establishing a robust reliability and maintainability process than most realize. This webinar presentation by renowned expert Dr. Klaus Blache will discuss the past, present, and future of predictive technologies; how they drive reliability and maintainability, their influence on continuous improvement, and more. Dr. Klaus Blache,…
In this webinar, Fluke experts Adam Kornak and Brian Harrison explore topics such as artificial intelligence vs. intelligent automation, virtual reality vs. augmented reality, and the implications of IIoT-enabled mobility for maintenance and reliability. What can we and should we be doing today to prepare for tomorrow? Where can we invest today’s dollars for driving…
Optimize performance and prevent downtime Imagine a machine that stamps plastic parts. It has three different phases coming into the asset, and occasionally, one of those phases becomes unbalanced. An unbalanced phase affects the proper functioning of the asset because the motor or pump increases its power consumption and does not work as designed. This…
Reliability engineer and consultant Lucas Marino discusses using Level of Repair Analysis (LORA) for evaluating the resource mix and repair-or-replace strategies for your asset life cycle management. He outlines the benefits of LORA for determining the most effective maintenance and support philosophy needed throughout the asset lifecycle. His presentation also includes the essential data…
Historical condition data and manual inputs are only part of the story. Attend this webinar to learn how you can integrate real-time data from sensors into your Maximo platform, easily and affordably, to help extend the life of your assets and reduce your unplanned downtime. Michael Mills is a solution engineer with Fluke Digital Systems….
Plant Services and Fluke hosted a webinar on July 24 discussing predictive maintenance (PdM) and its impact on budgets, productivity, and efficiency. Fluke experts, John Bernet CMRP and Frederic Baudart CMRP, dove into the effects, implementation, and challenges of deploying a predictive maintenance program. “You can have 25-30% cost reduction by having a good maintenance…
Today, the bees from The Hive are working hard and playing the smart way. The bees are working remotely while ensuring assets maintain asset reliability and availability.
