Introduction to Reliability Centered Maintenance

Abstract

Carl and Fred discussing the application of Reliability Centered Maintenance, as part of a comprehensive reliability plan.

Key Points

Join Carl and Fred as they discuss how to integrate Reliability Centered Maintenance into your reliability plans.

Topics include:

• when to use RCM
• origin of RCM in aircraft/aerospace industries
• optimizing maintenance plans
• use of FMEA in RCM projects
• developing preventive maintenance plans using RCM
• what data is needed to perform RCM
• different types of maintenance tasks

Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques, to field data analysis approaches.
