Who Should Attend:
This highly practical course is recommend for those involved in machinery operation and troubleshooting including:Maintenance Engineers
Machinery Engineers
Supervisors
Technicians Personnel from the refining, pharmaceutical, food, chemical, utilities, mining, fertilizer, and petrochemical industries will benefit.
Description:
This course presents a systematic approach to fault and failure prevention in a broad range of machinery. The key routes to maintenance avoidance are demonstrated through both overview and the study of examples in metallurgical failure analysis, vibration analysis, and a sequential approach to machinery troubleshooting and problem-solving. Equipment failure events will be reviewed and you are encouraged to bring relevant assembly drawings or such components as failed bearings, gears, mechanical seals and similar machine elements for failure analysis discussion. The course explores a systematic approach to successful failure analysis and troubleshooting programs. Through case studies, it will be shown that such a program can lead to significant failure reductions. A matrix approach to machinery troubleshooting uses illustrative examples in pumps, centrifugal compressors, blowers and fans, reciprocating compressors, engines and gas turbines. A systematic approach to generalized machinery problem-solving is described in terms of situation and cause analysis, action generation, decision making and planning for change. Finally, a highly effective shortcut root cause analysis method is explained in detail.
