What if laser alignment systems could automatically adapt to different assets, simple-to-complex alignment challenges, and any user’s skills and experience? Such adaptability is the hallmark of a new generation of laser alignment technology. With it, alignment jobs get done faster and with higher precision. In this webinar, Keith Chuah, Fluke Reliability Sales & Application Engineer…
Well-connected management teams effectively drive their Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) programs by utilizing key performance indicators (KPIs) and aligning them with broader business-level metrics. These teams understand that the success of a CBM program depends not only on technical execution but also on how well the performance data is communicated to stakeholders. In this webinar, we…
Since the late 90s, maintenance team leaders have struggled to make their teams more efficient and “World Class.” Root Cause Analysis is essential to understand when and why these inefficiencies began. Leaders need to change their mindset about where to find future maintenance associates, focusing on the MT (Maintenance Team) Factors: MT Factor #1: The…
Maintaining assets in a cost-effective manner is essential to a company’s profitability. To effectively and efficiently execute an Asset Management (Maintenance & Reliability – M&R) Strategy, an organization should have an effective Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS). The CMMS is the system of record that provides well organized and accurate data for continuous improvement. Effective…
In this Best Practices webinar, Michael DeMaria, Product Manager for Fluke Reliability, will discuss the evolution of permanently installed online vibration monitoring systems. Michael will introduce a new integrated solution from the Prüftechnik Vibguard online hardware to deliver diagnostics analysis at scale and meet expectations for asset health and corporate sustainability objectives. Speaker:Michael DeMaria, Director,…
Most CMMS systems by nature are neither intuitive nor simple to understand. Here is where the adoption of a “best practice” CMMS Implementation methodology can be worth its weight in gold by ensuring the fundamental 3 C’s (consensus with clarity and certainty) are instrumental in the decisions you are making. This is definitely a great…
Discussing the real return on investment of properly aligning rotating equipment. As there is a renewed focus on reliability and vibration monitoring, I focus on a root cause. An often-quoted comment is “…why align a machine when it is fitted with a flexible coupling designed to accommodate misalignment?” I will talk about why this one…
Ensuring the success of your connected reliability program is essential for the management team. Many companies today are facing vibration data overload, where the excessive amount of vibration data exceeds analytic capacity in today’s wireless sensor world Azima DLI manages over 500,000 machine tests per year and uses algorithms, metrics, and processes to sustain those…
Reliability and Operations teams have always struggled with a repeatable process for defining criticality for maintenance spare parts management. It is often too easy to make everything critical and often entails a binary method of “yes/no” or “true/false.” Most criticality review processes are static (one and done) and are not revisited nor adjusted with changing…
What is the most effective method? Does your company perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA) or just failure analysis? What distinguishes these tools and when are they appropriate? Does your company have a written policy or procedure? Are these performed routinely after an incident or notable failure? Listen to one company’s process, challenges and successes in…
