128 – How to Deal with the Top 5 Most Frequent Pump Failures with Heinz Bloch

How to Deal with the Top 5 Most Frequent Pump Failures with Heinz Bloch

In the first part of this podcast episode, we covered the state of pumps in facilities and process industries and the top 5 pump failures and their causes. What’s the best way to deal with these? Is it proper design specifications, proper engineering upfront? Is it a maintenance program? Or is it a combination of the two? In this second and last part of our podcast episode with Heinz Bloch, we are going to find out what has been implemented to address these failures.

127 – The Top 5 Most Frequent Pump Failures with Heinz Bloch

The Top 5 Most Frequent Pump Failures with Heinz Bloch

Being one of the most important parts in automotive and aircraft industries, pumps are no exception to failure modes. The reason why pump failures exist is because either people think the pumps are not that important or they just know it and simply don’t want to take enough time to fix the problems. They just go about either replacing the pumps or just relying on the reserved pumps. They don’t even bother to eliminate the repeating failures by finding the root cause.

RRP 021 Wireless Vibration Sensors with John Bernet

This week’s episode is sponsored by Fluke and my guest is John Bernet. We talk about the benefits of using wireless vibration sensors compared to traditional vibration routes, why we need to start with an understanding of our equipment before rolling out new technologies and why full vibration analysis isn’t always necessary.

To learn more about Fluke’s vibration sensors go towww.accendoreliability.com/go/fluke I would appreciate it if you checked that site out!

People not only use your product, they assemble it, move and store it. If a person is not able to interact with your product, with or without the manual, they may consider your product a failure. Designing in the ability for an individual to properly use your product is the art of considering human factors. [Read more…]

What is Mobile Maintenance with Scott Deckers

Imagine going on a trip or being someplace and you remembered something important that you wanted to check on your organization’s CMMS but didn’t have access to where you at currently? How would you handle such situation? This is where app technology comes in and one of the top quality features that every industry has got its eyes on.

With the Mobile Maintenance apps or software installed in your tablets or mobile phones, you can now remotely access any CMMS information, failure data, historical data, and everything else at your finger tips, anytime. It’s like doing maintenance on the go.

The Russian Concorde – How Not to Design Reliable Aircraft

Abstract

Chris and Fred discussing the little known Tupolev Tu-144 or the Russian Concorde. It was developed as a direct competitor to the Anglo-French Concorde, and was also the first commercial aircraft to fly at a speed of Mach 2. It even looks like the Concorde. But there is a reason you have not heard of it. Yup … reliability. And there is much to learn. In fact, Chris decided to write an article about it which can be read here.

125 – Inventory Optimization with Andrew Jordan

125 – Inventory Optimization with Andrew Jordan

Inventory Optimization with Andrew Jordan

Inventory management program is intrinsic in every organization. Although the structure varies from one organization to another, however, it typically includes setting the limits for every asset, capital investment and stock, as well as setting the lead time for stock purchases. Some organizations focus on optimizing their inventory based on reducing the capital investment. Others take availability of the assets into consideration. If you think about it, the latter strategy is much more effective if implemented successfully. It not only ensures the availability of assets when needed but also reduces unnecessary maintenance cost. Thus, resulting in capital optimization along with increased ROI.
