Download or read book Simplifying Mining Maintenance written by Gerard Wood and published by Lioncrest Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the world of mining, both mining and asset management professionals often face difficult challenges to improve plant and fleet reliability or cost. Over the years the mining industry has developed complicated systems and processes to deal with the seemingly complex problems, but in the real world of maintenance, to be truly effective, organizations must first embed the practical, culture-based routines that simplify work so that large groups of people can align and become effective. After more than thirty years in mining, Gerard Wood has experienced firsthand the persistent maintenance problems that can occur. Throughout these years he has developed effective methods for solving the common problems by developing the required culture of ownership and care that will ensure reliable, low-cost equipment performance. In Simplifying Mining Maintenance, he presents two simple models for reliable maintenance management, as well as actionable solutionsto common problems causing unscheduled downtime events, increased scheduled downtime, cost concerns, people problems, and poor transition from projects to operations. Having the best maintenance organization in the world is possible--by getting back to basics with simple, culture-focused routines that people can understand and implement to ensure sustainable equipment performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mine Maintenance Management Reader is an indispensable handbook for maintenance managers and supervisors, and mine and plant managers in heavy industry. Virtually every aspect of this essential function is addressed, from organizing maintenance around a plant-level production strategy, to how maintenance professionals can provide a road map for creating a more efficient organization. These critical big-picture issues are brought to life through engaging vignettes of maintenance men and women dealing with real-life, day-to-day problems and concerns. You'll learn how Charlie, a plant manager, gets into trouble when he adopts a team approach to maintenance without doing his homework. You'll see how Vivian, a haulage truck driver, sets a new standard for the quality of preventive maintenance inspections. And you'll read how Jerry, a general manager, establishes responsibilities for maintenance support that increase the production capacity and profitability of his mining operation. Author Paul D. Tomlingson draws on his 35 years of maintenance management consulting experience to craft these compelling, yet highly instructional, stories. Each reveals a powerful lesson, providing you with ideas and techniques to help solve maintenance problems you may be grappling with today.

Download or read book Mining Industry Maintenance Management for Beginners written by Bila Raphael Natama and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a lot of books out there about maintenance management, but few talk about maintenance in the mining industry with high-quality hands-on experience in the field. My primary motivation is to help the young generation to have reference documents to use as a maintenance handbook in the mining industry. With many years in the mining industry and a lot of knowledge gained through consultation and working as a maintenance manager, I feel like it is my responsibility to share this experience and help make life easy for startups. This book is written for a very diverse group of audience, from young professionals to experienced leaders, mining industry advocates, researchers, government entities to academic institutions, this book intends to give a clear understanding of maintenance practices in gold mine industries, help beginners and community surrounding mining industries understand the extend of work and the benefit of the maintenance department in the mining industry in general and in gold mine particularly. This book embraces topics around mining industry maintenance management and mining industry basic operation principles such as exploration techniques, extraction methods, processing procedures, environment, and social considerations in gold mines, the safety and security aspect are also covered. The book is intended to make a balance between technical details in gold mine maintenance practices and easy explanations of gold extraction, making it suitable for both industry insiders and general readers seeking an in-depth understanding. An example of crushing circuit maintenance will be developed in detail in this book.

Download or read book Mining Machines and Earth Moving Equipment written by Marek Sokolski and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents central problems in the design, research and maintenance of large-size mining machines for open pits, mobile earth-moving machinery, hydraulic hammers for mining and civil engineering, and screening processes for bulk materials. It brings together the insights of numerous respected academics to offer a thorough and multifaceted overview of the topic. The first few chapters of the book deal with specific problems that frequently occur in machinery for open-pit mining. They focus on the resilience of large-size mining machines, degradation of steels used for supporting structures, and modelling of large-size rotary joints, as well as the noise hazards in connection with degradation processes. The book then moves on to discuss problems arising in earth-moving machinery, such as new approaches to the assessment of operation and maintenance, dynamic loads in front-end loader booms, and synchronic transfer of power from the engine to the driven wheels. The book concludes by discussing hydraulic hammers for mining and civil engineering, and screening processes for bulk materials that combine a vibroscreen with additional feed elements. The book is primarily intended for undergraduate and graduate mechanical engineering courses, but will also be of interest to researchers and mechanical engineers.
