Machinery Failure Analysis and Prevention
Course Description
The possible reasons leading to machinery failure is important to personnel involved to machinery, operation and maintenance. This will help all of them to take possible precessions in their jobs to avoid future failures. The actual cause of failure could be studied and analyzed to know what the failure mechanism was. This is most important to be known by maintenance personnel. This course present a systematic approach to fault diagnosis and failure prevention in a broad range of machinery used in many industries. The key routes to preventive maintenance are demonstrated through both overview and the study of examples in different failure analysis and a sequential approach to machinery trouble-shooting and problem solving. A matrix approach to machinery troubleshooting uses illustrative examples in pumps, centrifugal compressors, diesel engines, blowers and fans, reciprocating compressors, engines and gas turbines. Finally, a systematic approach to generalized machinery problem solving is described leading to a highly effective root cause analysis method which will be explained in detail.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?
Training Objective

Upon completion of the course, the trainee will be able to:

  • Consolidate and update understanding of the Terminology used in measuring and analysis.
  • Provide methods to improve equipment through the prediction and the avoidance of Equipment Failure.
  • Understanding the critical necessities and priorities associated for maintaining machinery
  • Key procedure for the implementation of risk based failure analysis
  • Equipment critically and functional failure
  • How to reduce the overall life cycle cost of owning a piece of equipment.
  • Maximize component life by avoiding the cause of failure.
  • Be familiar with condition based maintenance rather than corrective maintenance.
  • Implement real improvements in machinery reliability and plant performance.
  • Use case studies based on both technical and non technical situations.

Target Audience

The course is designed to all personnel (engineers and/ or technical staff) who are involved in machinery operation, inspection and maintenance, reliability and availability management. Personnel from process industries such as refining, petrochemical, chemical, mining, pharmaceutical, fertilizer, food processing and utilities will profit.
