SMRP18 – Online Monitoring with Maureen Gribble

SMRP18 – Online Monitoring with Maureen Gribble

Ultrasound is a great tool but using it to monitor your equipment needs resources and time. When you install sensors for data capturing, there are a lot of values that come up. That much amount of data can overwhelm your engineers. That s why it is better to have an online monitoring solution that can do that job for you. One of such tools is Forecast designed by UE systems. All you have to do is plug the device to the critical equipment, put the sensors at various vulnerable points, and you […]

SMRP18 – SMRP Conference Discussion w Fred Schenkelberg

This episode is about the learning and value that conferences hold. In SMRP 2018 conference, there were a lot of companies that participated along with their workers so that they learn something new. This yearly conference is a great opportunity for people who are struggling with different things in reliability and maintenance programs. There are presentations, workshops, and discussions all around from where you can learn to change reliability practices, improve, and sustain the process for a long term. There are a lot of new engineers or trainees who are looking for a […]

141 – Continuously Identify Problems Peter Horsburgh

Continuously Identify Problems w/ Peter Horsburgh

Extraordinary Reliability Engineers always have some habits that differentiate them from the rest. One of these habits is that they identify the problem and really make sure that they understand it before they continue working towards its solution. A successful reliability engineer doesn t just rely on the failure data, he actually analysis the problem, understands it, takes feedback from different people, and then deploy resources to fix that problem. When you really know what s going on with your assets, only then you can hope to come up with a good solution that will […]

SMRP18 – Power Monitoring with Alex Desselle

SMRP18 – Power Monitoring with Alex Desselle

Condition-based monitoring is one of the best ways to proactively approach the solution to the problems. When you are looking at the equipment for expected failures, it is very important to check the power conditions. There are a lot of failures that can be captured ahead of time if you have the power quality checks in place. When we talk about Power monitoring, the maintenance managers have to look for voltage spikes, current flow, and thermal changes in the operating environment of the equipment. This can be done by using thermal sensors but there […]

SMRP18 – The Importance of Procedures with Adrian Messer

SMRP18 – The Importance of Procedures with Adrian Messer

There are a lot of plant facilities that do everything right but the results are never what they expect. The reason that they can t get a hold of the problem and solve it for good is that they don t have the procedures in the place. So, they are doing the right things but not in the right way. That s why there should be procedures in place before any kind of maintenance work is done. Procedures not only help and support the maintenance personnel does their jobs the best way […]
