RRP 044 Precision Alignment with Adam Stredel

RRP 044 Precision Alignment with Adam Stredel

This week is another 2 part episode.  In the first part, I welcome on Maureen Gribble from UE Systems to give us some details on their conference, Reliable Asset World/Ultrasound World, May 14-17, 2019.  I’ll be there and I’ll be podcasting so if you’re heading to that conference, come say hi.

In the second part, I welcome on Adam Stredel from Ludeca to talk all things precision alignment.  Adam breaks down soft foot, thermal expansion and gives us his top tips on laser alignment.

I’m still looking for new opportunities in reliability and maintenance so if you hear of any positions that you think I would be suitable for, please let me know at robsreliabilityproject@gmail.com

Also, I have put up a survey pinned to the top of the Rob’s Reliability Project page on LinkedIn and I would appreciate it if you filled it out.  It’s a short survey and I will read all answers so any feedback about topics that you’d like to hear, content that you liked or disliked and how I can serve you better would be greatly appreciated.  Link to survey – https://goo.gl/forms/fsABmgBp5YMyIn4I3

I got feedback from Gerard Wood about my microphone popping.  First off, thanks Gerard for the feedback.   I have tried to remedy the situation with my setup but it hasn’t appeared to work.  I have ordered a new microphone which will arrive tomorrow, however, I have some episodes in the tank so you’ll have to give me 5-6 weeks before it gets cleared up.  I apologize for the audio quality over those next few weeks and then we’ll be in the clear.

Now let’s get started on the episode.  We have Maureen Gribble up first speaking about Reliable Asset World and then Adam Stredel breaks down precision alignment.  Let’s go.

If you have any questions, business inquiries or if you’d like to appear on the podcast, email me at robsreliabilityproject@gmail.com
