314 – Clean Energy with Howard Penrose

314 – Clean Energy with Howard Penrose

Clean Energy with Howard Penrose

Welcome back Howard to the Podcast. Howard is the founder of Motordoc and is heavily involved with IEEE and SMRP. Though, briefly, tell us about yourself.

My entire career has been about electric machines and systems from my time in the Navy. I later had short stints both in repair business and teaching at the University of Illinois. I also ran the energy resources at the University. I later went into the test equipment industry and afterwards started a repair shop named Motordoc. Currently involved in a lot of ESG projects and Utility works in solar energy and wind turbines. Also I am the vice chair of American Clean Power.

In this episode we covered:

  • Do the utilities know what they need to ramp up for?
  • What are the industrial facilities doing especially in degasifying their energy through electrification?
  • How are we to take advantage of this clean power if the infrastructure cannot support it?

Angela Borella

In this special episode of the Maintenance Mavericks Podcast, we have the Data Analyst and Program Manager Assistant at Wearcheck USA, Angela Borella, on the show!

Angela started her career in maintenance and reliability as a technician in 1995 and has since then specialized in oil analysis and lubrication, assisting many organizations to reach a world-class lubrication design. Hear what Angela has to say about whether or not certifications or hands-on experience matters more in a maintenance and reliability role and learn about her journey throughout her career as a woman in the field.

Women in Maintenance is a special series hosted by Caitlyn Young-Gilbert, UpKeep’s Maintenance Community Founder. Caitlyn meets with a female leader in the maintenance industry to discuss their career journeys and share best practices to help other women within the maintenance industry thrive!

Design Input & Specs vs. Test & Measure Capability

When defining design inputs and specifications, what does a design engineer need to consider about the test and measure capability? What are the typical ways that we assess the variability that a test or measurement introduces into our result?

Decarbonization and the Impact on Maintenance with Steven Dobie

Welcome Steven to the podcast. Steven is a co-host of another podcast called Maintenance Disrupted. However briefly, tell us more about yourself.

I am a maintenance and reliability engineer in the mining industry who has been in tech for a couple of years. Presently working with a centralised maintenance group focused on keeping equipment and trucks running longer.

In this episode we covered:

  • Are you being impacted a lot by sustainability i.e decarbonization, electrification?
  • How does this impact people from a maintenance person’s perspective?
  • What are the other ways to produce power?

Right now, there is a soaring demand for warehouses and distribution centers. We’re seeing all over the news how there are little to no spaces available. Why is this happening? And, how does this affect our industry now and in the future?

Amid this Warehouse Space Race, American companies are beginning to take steps to make their warehouses more energy efficient. Why is this happening now? Should this take precedence over finding a solution to get more space?

We have Ramesh Gulati, the Reliability Sherpa, back on the show! And, he is ready to share his thoughts on the subject. Listen today!

CT E11 What is the Future of Quality? with Dianna Deeney

CT E11 What is the Future of Quality? with Dianna Deeney

CT E11 What is the Future of Quality? with Dianna Deeney

In this episode, I have Dianna Deeney join us, with whom I unpack in detail the question: “What is the future of quality?”. Dianna recently posted an online article with the same title, and since it really resonated with me, I thought she and I could talk through her excellent findings on the show.

Dianna is a mechanical, quality, reliability engineer, consultant and fellow podcaster. She advises engineers in product development. Her work includes consulting and training on how quality and reliability engineering methods can be integrated early into the design process. She believes that the chance of design success is improved through increased collaboration with cross-functional teams, data-based decisions, and application of risk-based analyses – all of which she has seen to be capable through quality thinking. She consults under Deeney Enterprises and is founder of Quality during Design (https://www.qualityduringdesign.com), an online platform that shares resources, practical advice, and problem-solving techniques to strategically apply quality and reliability engineering methods to product design.

Episode highlights:

– Trends that have shaped the voice of the customer in recent years

– Thoughts on the use big data in quality; challenges and opportunities

– Recent trends in product development and innovation

– How does the quality function best fit within the organization?

– Dianna’s practical advice as to how quality professionals can navigate the ever-changing landscape and essentially the future of how we do business

QDD 056 ALT vs. HALT

QDD 056 ALT vs. HALT

ALT vs. HALT

Reliability engineers may suggest environmental stress tests. There are many types of tests in an RE’s toolbox. We compare two types of commonly known tests that are used for design: ALT vs. HALT. What are the important distinctions between these two methods? What value do they each bring to design engineering? And how do they fit into other reliability test methods?

How to Check a Regression Fit

podcast episode with speaker Fred Schenkelberg

When fitting a line or curve to data, it’s a model. When modeling, it is worth remembering the George Box quote, “Essentially all models are wrong, but some are useful.” Yet, how do we separate a useful model from one that isn’t useful? One step in finding a helpful regression model is to consider the residuals. BTW: Weibull analysis is another term for regression analysis. [Read more…]
