High plant reliability is critical for every successful company, and it has never been more important than it is in the present economic climate.
The costs associated with equipment downtime and reduced production can be significant, and engineers must ensure that you are using every possible means of maximizing plant reliability and performance. Of the five fundamental ways in which engineers can approach the maintenance of plant, one of the least commonly used (because it is least commonly understood) is Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM).
The heart of an RCM approach is the creation and exploitation of reliability models that use previous failure data to predict future plant performance and hence permit the selection of a maintenance strategy and frequency optimization of planned maintenance activities. Reliability modeling as part of an integrated maintenance strategy is an approach that can no longer be sidelined or ignored by high performing companies.
This conference is a combination of instructor-led topic areas and extensive computer-based analysis and modeling. You will learn in detail about, and practice using, best-of-breed approaches to statistical failure data analysis and reliability modeling. Furthermore, throughout the conference, you will have the opportunity to analyze your own data and to ask lots of questions about how best to apply reliability analysis and modeling techniques in your organization.
The conference delivers many practically-based technical solutions to reliability improvement, and delegates will discuss these concepts and practice using them via a range of practical tools applied to real-world case studies and data.
