Motion Amplification is a rapidly evolving technology that is being utilized more and more within maintenance and reliability programs. With new technology comes rapid evolution, new capabilities, and new use cases. In this presentation, we will cover new advances in the technology and how it is being leveraged for full field vibration. Advances include the…
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 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…
Subject-matter expert Craig Haase provides a primer on thermography in maintenance and reliability and how it can powerfully unearth details surrounding your machines’ condition and health. Haase will detail customer scenarios and use cases, highlighting how thermal imaging solutions can record, provide alarm notifications, and monitor assets 24/7 regardless of location. He will also discuss…
By Ankush Malhotra President at Fluke Reliability Every day, in manufacturing facilities worldwide, experienced and capable people are trying to second-guess the maintenance requirements of the machines that populate their plants. The reason is simple: They know that an effective maintenance program can increase their uptime, decrease maintenance costs, reduce unplanned outages, and extend the…
At a time like this, when normal is abnormal and abnormal has become business as usual, it can be useful to find out how your peers are approaching their maintenance strategies. That’s why we at Fluke worked with Plant Services this spring to survey more than 200 maintenance and reliability professionals to assess how the…
Maintenance teams know these pitfalls. Coupling backlash, where manual positioning of the coupling is needed during a measurement rotation. Uncoupled machines, where laser and sensor heads must be separately and manually positioned on a machine, leading to possible errors and rework. Repeated moves and measurements just to get an accurate alignment result. In this webinar,…
The pandemic that has upended normalcy in 2020 is fueling urgency among maintenance leaders for system improvements previously viewed as “future considerations.” The ability to monitor asset health remotely, for example, has gone from a “want” to a “need”—something essential to stay productive in the near term and competitive over the long run. Around 82%…
Reliability is designed—literally and figuratively. Literally speaking, the inherent reliability of our equipment is governed by its design. But as equipment custodians, what we do (or don’t do) affects a machine’s reliability more than we may think—and it goes way beyond maintenance. In this webinar, RCM expert Nancy Regan details the winning reliability philosophy that…
The current crisis is making the benefits and value of flexibility in the Industrial Internet of Things more obvious than ever. It is driving more people to investigate how the cloud and IIoT with software-connected equipment and advanced analytics tools can turn data volumes into meaningful maintenance intelligence accessible onsite or remotely. However, maintenance leaders…
