This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book depicts the life and struggle of maintenance in seeking better ways and means to improve the reliability of the equipment and assets. The author shares his experience on how to achieve such feat. Transitioning from a reactive to a proactive maintenance stage is not an easy tasks but it is not also an impossible tasks. What the author believes is that the key to everything is educating the maintenance people on what maintenance is all about. Training is where we acquire knowledge to develop the skills required to do our job right. This book contains real life stories, struggles and actual experiences by the author in his career in maintenance and currently as a Reliability and Maintenance Consultant. Every industry must change their paradigm and realize that maintenance are not repair people. The meaning of the word maintain is simply to preserve our equipment and assets. And we can only preserve our assets if maintenance are equipped with the right knowledge on how to perform their jobs right the first time around. I have written this book in order to reach out to industries in search of discovering ways to improve not only their equipment and assets but as well as their maintenance human resources. Remember that maintenance is not a department, it is not a function or any organization but rather maintenance are humble and down to earth human being, hence let us provide them with the respect that they truly deserve because that is all they ask for. The message of this book is simple and straightforward. There is no better way to start the journey to reliability other than to go back to the basics and addressing these very small problems we have in our plant. Big problems, unplanned breakdowns and catastrophic failures are just an accumulation of small problems that has always been ignored in the first place. Maintenance is always a shared responsibility for operators and maintenance working together in complete harmony. It will be difficult for maintenance to transition from a reactive to a proactive mode if operators will not be involved in doing maintenance since maintenance is always a shared responsibility for operators and maintenance This book explains in detail on how to proceed with the 4 Phases of Planned Maintenance and how to integrate RCM into the TPM process. It also covers the importance of doing Autonomous Maintenance as well as Spare Parts Management which is believed to be the missing link theory on any reliability and maintenance strategy. Chapter 11 is a classic case study on what maintenance can achieve if there is a clear roadmap to follow. The last chapter states that maintenance are just human like you and me. What is important is not to blame them for every single failure that occur in the plant but for both operations and maintenance to work together on the problem. Many industries are looking for a structured and detailed approach on how they can improve their maintenance asset and resources. This book provide that level of information. Each chapter begins with a quote on wisdom of maintenance and at the end of each chapter will be a quiz for you to answer.

Download or read book Launching Your Asset Reliability Transformation written by Jason Tranter and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every reliability improvement initiative that has failed or floundered has lacked sustained leadership from the senior executive. The programs were based on technical "common sense," not business value, and the lack of leadership meant the culture did not change. This book explains how to build a solid business case and win senior management support. It lays the foundation for a successful and sustained program: ensuring the needs and risks of the business are clearly understood, assessing the current state, identifying the gaps, establishing targets and priorities, jumpstarting with pilot projects, and building the economic justification.Appendices explain the economics of reliability (ROI, NPV, IRR, EVA, and more), the value of reliability (OEE, TEEP, safety, and more), Pareto analysis, asset criticality ranking, and selling to senior management.This book does not just tell you what you should do; it lays out a step-by-step guide for exactly how to do it successfully with eight core steps and 44 detailed recommended practices.If you want to launch a new program or revive an existing program, this is the place to start.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quest for reliability is long overdue! In the case of many operations, realization of sustained reliability is still a work in progress. Very few organizations have completed the journey to world-class reliability. The vast majority still operate within a reactive culture, allowing response to repetitive failures to consume an excessive proportion of already limited maintenance resources, and leaving too few for performance of any proactive activities. In today's competitive international environment, enterprise survival is a battle of the fittest. To survive, organizations must achieve "world-class" stature, characterized by wellness, readiness, and application required for a company to successfully compete globally. That's why Maintenance and Operational Reliability is so important. This work is organized by the foundation and 5 Pillars of Maintenance/Reliability Excellence, plus 24 Building Blocks, as depicted throughout the book. This pillar graphic shows the functions, management techniques, systems, information sources and performance management vital to the maintenance and reliability process, and also serves as an important visual aid for the education of the entire organization. So, how is the ultimate, but challenging reliability goal to be achieved? Are you prepared to manage, support, process, and interpret the magnitude of information in real time, critical to making the right business decisions to achieve a competitive advantage? The authors, two veteran maintenance and reliability experts, have collected all the essentials leading to reliability here, in one practical resource, connecting and sequencing the integral pieces for world-class reliability. Features Guides readers through the journey from classic reactive repair upon failure to reliable, proactive maintenance, engineered to preclude failure and, ultimately, to sustain reliability. Clarifies roles and responsibilities of involved functions while explaining control tools to be deployed by each position. Provides the overriding business justification required to gain senior management commitment.

Download or read book Reliability A Shared Responsibility for Operators and Maintenance Sequel to World Class Maintenance Management The 12 Disciplines and Maintenance written by Rolly Angeles and published by World Class Maintenance Manage. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book had to be written for industries to realize what they are missing. My goal is to reach out to industries and convince them that these two cannot co-exists without each other and that it is time for both operators and maintenance to finally work together in improving not only the productivity but as well as improving the reliability of their equipment and assets. Separating these two only creates feud and friction between them. When I sometimes think about this, all I can say is that the problems on industries remain deeply rooted down in their organization, from how their organizational was structured, their policies, procedures they wrote and the rules they imposed upon their employees. This book may sound contradicting to many of the policies industries imposed and all I ask from the reader is to finish reading this book so that the reader can understand my reasons behind the contradiction. Industries hire me for one reason, so that I can tell them what is wrong with them on how they do maintenance and what can be done about it. In today's industry's norm, maintenance are often provided with blinkers or blinders. This is an eye patch they place on the eyes of the horse so that the horse cannot see the rear or what is on their side and can only see the front. The moment they were hired, they wore this blinkers so that maintenance can only see the things you learned from the University of Hard Knocks. When it is time for them to retire, then this blinders needs to be pass on to the new maintenance generation and that is how it goes for industries It is time to remove those blinkers/blinders so that maintenance can see at a wider range and found out what they are missing at all. There are many things that we need to change so that industries can move forward and remain in business.This book is composed of twelve chapters in which I include a quiz at the end of each chapter for the reader to answer in order to grasp the level of understanding they got from reading each chapter. Chapter 1 discuss about why operators are important on any maintenance and reliability strategy. As our equipment continues to be upgraded and automated, we need operators who are not only switch flickers and operate the equipment but what we need are operators who can sense if something is wrong with their equipment at its earliest possible stage. Dealing a small problem is less expensive than waiting for the failure to come. The breakdowns and failures we experience on our equipment are just merely an accumulation of small problems that had been neglected so far. The problem was that when these problems were small nothing had been done to correct them until another small problem emerge and another and another in which finally the equipment can no longer bear which ended up in a breakdown. And when the machine fails, then that is the time we react. Chapter 2 explains what maintenance is all about. What it can do and what it cannot do. Maintenance is simple, but often times industries complicate matters. For example Preventive Maintenance is one of the strategies on maintenance. This is a very good strategy indeed as its role is to extend the lifespan of the asset instead of doing maintenance on a reactive or crash basis but the problem is that most industries misuse, abuse or overuse this strategy ending up in more breakdowns instead of the other way around. Chapter 3 discuss about human errors. This is a very important topic as most of the world's lists industrial incidents, I mean almost all industrial accidents that happened all around the world was mostly a matter of maintenance and human errors. Although technically speaking, there is indeed no way to eliminated human errors since this is part of being human. Human errors has many origins and even the best and smartest employee we have can commit the worst errors and mistakes but the good news is that human errors can be manage more intelligently.
Download or read book Productivity and Reliability Based Maintenance Management Second Edition written by Matthew P. Stephens and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Productivity and Reliability-Based Maintenance Management, Second Edition is intended to provide a strong yet practical foundation for understanding the concepts and practices of total productive maintenance (TPM) management—a proactive asset and resource management strategy that is based on enhancing equipment reliability and overall enterprise productivity. The book is intended to serve as a fundamental yet comprehensive educational and practical guide for departing from the wait-failure-emergency repair cycle that has plagued too many industries, instead advancing a proactive and productive maintenance strategy. It is not intended to be a how-to-fix-it manual, but rather emphasizes the concept of a world-class maintenance management philosophy to avoid the failure in the first place. Universities, junior and community colleges, and technical institutes as well as professional, corporate, and industrial training programs can benefit by incorporating these fundamental concepts in their technical and managerial curricula. The book can serve as a powerful educational tool for students as well as for maintenance professionals and managers. In addition to updating the previous historical and statistical data and tables, the second edition expands on and adds to case studies based on current maintenance-related events. Several numerical examples and explanations are revised in order to enhance the clarity of the methodology. The second edition introduces the readers to the state-of-the-art concepts of the Internet of Things (IoT), smart sensors, and their application to maintenance and TPM.
Download or read book Decoding Reliability Centered Maintenance Process for Manufacturing Industries written by Rolly Angeles and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are cases where breakdowns and failures are not the primary cause of equipment downtime, especially in manufacturing industries. Although RCM is a popular strategy, still many manufacturing industries are not implementing this process and continue to remain stuck in their PM tasks. The main reason why I wrote this book is that doing RCM in a manufacturing plant is a bit different from doing RCM in oil and gas, power plants, and other similar plants because their equipment losses are different, although the process on how RCM is done will be the same. If you worked in a semi-conductor plant, breakdowns and failures are not the main issues, but minor-stoppages, changeover, or quality problems are. You must know the boundary between what RCM can address and what it cannot. RCM will address failures and breakdowns by proposing tasks; it is not designed to address every possible equipment loss. What I am saying is that failures are just a subset of the entire equipment losses. Suppose you have chronic quality problems caused by the equipment; RCM can address some of them, but not all, since Quality problems and defects are much broader than breakdown and failures. I have a detailed explanation of what particular losses RCM can and cannot address in Chapter 3.3.2 of this book. This book is written to help industries implementing RCM on their machines, equipment, and assets. Some of the highlights of this book includes: - 27 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on RCM - 22 Tips on Implementing RCM- 15 Don'ts About RCM - Why the RCM Preparatory Stage is Important - Can RCM Address All Equipment Losses? - Actual Case Study on RCM - How to Integrate RCM into the TPM Process - Bonus: RCM Forms I used in Excell Format - The RCM and TPM Crossroads- - Strenghtening the SAE JA1011 Criteria - Addressing MRO Spare Parts after Implementing RCM - How to Determine the Correct Interval for PM, PdM, FFT, and Switching Standby Components - MRO Decision Diagram on Whether to Stock or Not to Stock - Difference Between a Failure Mode and a Root Cause - Secondary Tasks for Doing On-Condition Tasks - Details in Writing the RCM Decision Worksheet Explained - Details in Writing the RCM Information Worksheet Explained - Details in performing Horizontal Replication for Similar Equipment with the Same Operating Context - Details in Conducting the RCM Audit - And more . . . In this book, I have explained two definitions of RCM, which is looking on the equipment side and the human side of doing it. Reliability-Centered maintenance is a process used to determine any physical asset's maintenance tasks, decisions, and requirements in its current or present operating context. It is also a process used to determine what must be done to ensure that any physical assets continue to do whatever their users want them to do in their present operating context. On the human and softer definition, RCM is a way or process of capturing and extracting the knowledge, understanding, and wisdom of the most experienced people in the plant and transforming it into a living document and their legacy. In most cases, when these good old folks go away and retire for good, they bring everything they know to their grave, and the plant hires fresh employees with little or no experience and starts everything from the very beginning. We just want to put a stop to this never-ending cycle.I have also explained in this book how to implement RCM more successfully by restoring the equipment first. If the plant is implementing Total Productive Maintenance, the integration of these two methodologies is explained in detail in this book.

Download or read book Reliability Centered Maintenance Management and Engineering Methods written by R.T. Anderson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the authors provide a fresh look at basic reliability and maintainability engineering techniques and management tools for ap plication to the system maintenance planning and implementation process. The essential life-cycle reliability centered maintenance (ReM) activities are focused on maintenance planning and the prevention of failure. The premise is that more efficient, and therefore effective, life-cycle main tenance programs can be established using a well disciplined decision logic analysis process that addresses individual part failure modes, their consequences, and the actual preventive maintenance tasks. This premise and the techniques and tools described emphasize preventive, not corrective, maintenance. The authors also describe the techniques and tools fundamental to maintenance engineering. They provide an understanding of the inter relationships of the elements of a complete ReM program (which are applicable to any complex system or component and are not limited only to the aircraft industry). They describe special methodologies for improving the maintenance process. These include an on-condition maintenance (OeM) methodology to identify defects and potential deterioration which can determine what is needed as a maintenance action in order to prevent failure during use.
Download or read book Reliability Centered Maintenance written by James Gehris and published by . This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Moubray's 1997 book Reliability Centered Maintenance outlined a comprehensive collection of the core principles and tenets of reliability centered maintenance-RCM. Originally developed in the 1970s, RCM has since been adopted by major industries, including the United States military and the aviation industry. Nevertheless, while Moubray's RCM2 provides an excellent academic description of topics associated with RCM, there are a number of important questions and topics that have been left unaddressed in print. In Reliability Centered Maintenance-Unraveling the Mysteries, author James Gehris offers a diligent and comprehensive expansion and companion that provides questions beyond the traditional RCM questions and definitions. With over thirty years of experience as a US Marine Corps maintenance officer using RCM concepts and approaches, Gehris provides a roadmap to help ensure that any RCM analyses are properly conducted and comply with the SAE JA1011 standard for RCM.
