Understanding Thermal Growth with John Lambert

In this episode, the thermal growth and the understanding of the phenomenon—how it occurs and how to prevent and calculate it—is being discussed by John Lambert. So, first of all, we have to know what actually the thermal growth is. The answer is simple. This phenomenon occurs when the rotating machines get hot due to the difference in temperature and they start to expand in every direction. As these machines are mostly metal so their thermal growth is explained by the coefficient of linear thermal expansion that is already known for many different materials.

Fundamentals of ALT

Fundamentals of ALT

An Introduction, Basic Steps, and Examples of How ALT Goes Wrong

Accelerated Life Testing, ALT, is a technique to estimate an item’s time to failure-pattern. In short, ALT allows us to shorten time. Done well, it provides valuable insights into the future. Done poorly, it is a colossal waste of resources.

In this webinar, let’s talk about the various methods available to you for ALT. Select the right approach, given your understanding of the failure mechanism involved. And discuss the best and a few worst practices when planning and conducting ALT. [Read more…]

Change Management and Your Maintenance Program with Shon Isenhour

This episode focuses on the change management and the impact that it can have on your maintenance program. So, what is change management? It occurs at different levels in the organizations but the most basic level—the people level—that makes the organizational culture needs to be tended first. It happens a lot that after the successful planning and scheduling, work execution seems to be fine in the short term but fails horribly in the long term because the change process was not addressed and handled properly at all the critical levels in the organizational framework. So, what things need to be addressed first?

Are you a Victim of Reliability Drive By with Scott Kelley

This episode of the weekly podcast is about reliability drive by that is very common in the organizations that have multiple sites. So how often does this happen and why? What exactly is a reliability drive by? Those organizations that have multiple sites with assets or plants there with teams working there often send their reliability engineers to check the site get any information that they can get in a specified—usually very short time—and then move on to the next sites for doing the same things they did on the previous sites. This is called reliability drive by.

55 – Reliability from a CMMS Perspective with John Reeve

55 – Reliability from a CMMS Perspective with John Reeve

Reliability from a CMMS Perspective with John Reeve

This episode is about the book, Reliability from a CMMS Perspective by John Reeve that will be coming out this fall. Often times, companies just implement a CMMS into thFailure Dataeir reliability programs and the software doesn’t live up their expectations. So, what exactly goes wrong with such kind of projects? How do they get it right? The simple answer may be is that they expect too much and too fast. The results from any SAAS oriented system take time and they require patience. Then there needs to be some sort of consultation between the reliability engineers and the management of the company if they are ever going to implement a CMMS correctly.
