How machine alignment impacts maintenance strategies
Much of the work tied to machine alignment is standardized. But what happens after the alignment? There aren’t formal standards for what comes next, yet the strategies you adopt after alignment can help extend equipment lifespan. The presenters for Fluke Reliability’s Sept. 18 webinar titled “What happens after the alignment” are experts in asset maintenance…
Why we can’t proceduralize everything
Unwanted errors & surprises are serious threats to reliability in any high-hazard industry. To address them, many leaders apply a mechanistic approach. They install controls, write procedures, and enforce compliance. But these mechanistic strategies often backfire in adaptive, human-based systems. Learn the difference between Mechanistic and Adaptive Systems See why we can’t “proceduralize everything” in…

How to Apply Ultrasound Technology to Extend Bearing Life
Under lubricating or overlubricating a bearing can destroy it and bring production to a halt. Although there’s always going to be a certain amount of friction, maintaining just the right quantity of lubrication will keep it at an acceptable level. In his July 2021 Accelix best practices webinar, Blair Fraser, global director of IIoT Solutions…
What cybersecurity risks do maintenance and reliability teams face—and what can they do about it?
Know thy enemy. This has never been truer than in the field of cybersecurity, right now. With ransomware attacks escalating by the day, maintenance and reliability teams at critical facilities, government organizations, and manufacturers all need to assess their level of cyber risk and improve their cyber preventive maintenance actions.

Managing cybersecurity risk in maintenance and reliability
Maintenance and reliability teams increasingly utilize a range of technologies, systems and devices—all of which can present cybersecurity risks. For this presentation, cyber expert Matthew Hudon and CMRP Frederic Baudart are joining together to outline which cybersecurity risks M&R teams should pay particular attention to and what preventive actions make the most sense to…
Vibration monitoring for peak asset performance
Vibration monitoring alerts teams to changes in machine condition before the situation degrades enough to cause harm. With a solid mix of monitoring and in-person evaluation, maintenance teams can move closer to condition-based-maintenance, where they make decisions and schedule work based on what their assets are saying, not just on the maintenance intervals. Join this…
