How to Start a Vibe Program with Jesus Sefonte

Even though the vibration analysis has been around for a long time, there are very few organizations that use it. Machinery vibration is the study of the behavior of rotating machinery for detecting faults based on the monitoring of different machinery components using vibration signals. All the rotating machines vibrate either in a good or bad way and vibration analysis is the best way to predict machinery behavior by making it part of your predictive maintenance program. It helps you access machinery health, predict failures, and do corrective actions when needed. So, […]

Lubrication with Sanya Mathura

In mechanical fields like automotive, oil and gas, power generation and aviation industries, lubricants play a  critical role in maintaining equipment reliability. They consist of both oils and grease. 

In this episode, Sanya Mathura of Sustainable Reliability Solutions shares her thoughts on why and how organizations can foster an active approach to lubrication. 

Thermal Growth with Daus Studenberg

When a machine heats up and starts expanding in all the directions is simply called the thermal growth. When it actually comes to understanding it, it means that you are dealing with machinery movement and that can cause misalignment in the machine. Also, your alignment is only as good as your target. If your machine starts moving and you have a bearable misalignment in the off-set condition, you will allow that bear minimum of misalignment in your machine deliberately in that condition. So, before you detect thermal growth, you need to have a correct target in […]

Master Data Management with Scott Taylor

For organizations, data that is critical for parties, places, and things is called master data. While conventional strategies are available for manipulating data, this episode places special emphasis on how to make the most out of your master data.
