Optimizing a Condition Based Maintenance Program with Gearbox Tooth Failure
A Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) policy is a procedure used by maintenance personnel to interpret a set of measured machine condition indicators and decide whether or not to renew a physical asset at the current moment. Traditionally CBM data interpretive policies have been obvious. For example, if the glycol measurement in an engine’s lube oil is…

Diagnostics versus prognostics
Where is the divide between the process of troubleshooting and that of predictive condition based maintenance? Both sets of procedures require condition data and knowledge of failure behavior. How do these distinct processes work with one another? Some confusion in the purchase and application of maintenance technology tools can arise when the particular problem lacks sufficient…

Objectivity in condition based maintenance decisions
I am interested in knowing more on your decision tool around CM (Condition Monitoring) prognosis and when to intervene in corrective maintenance. I want to look at different ways of removing subjective decisions and use more of an objective method given the complexity of information surrounding critical productive equipment. As we have many mines around…

Smart CBM demo
This table top demonstration predicts failure by compiling and analyzing the history of an equipment that can fail at any time. The principles of Living RCM are applied as a prerequisite for smart Condition Based Maintenance (CBM). The failure mechanism, as in the real world, is subject to random external and internal stresses. The challenge facing all maintenance…
