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…

Does historical age data have value?
The following is a quote from a well known consultant: The biggest problem we have is lack of data… The data we do have in most cases is subject to different conditions as well. So if I have managed to collect 10 failures of a pump in 15 years, I am unlikely to be able…

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…

LRCM-EXAKT – a general solution
One might imagine that we can obtain practical improvement in maintenance performance quickly and inexpensively by concentrating on CBM technology for example, Oil Analysis. The supposition is reasonable but overlooks an obstacle that impedes verifiable and optimal CBM decision making in most maintenance organizations. In order to apply CBM we must have identified a condition…

Difference between LRCM and EXAKT
What is the difference in LRCM & EXAKT EXAKT is a software application for performing Reliability Analysis (RA). RA is a general set of software enabled procedures used by Reliability/Maintenance Engineers to develop and deploy rules (called models). These models optimize, monitor, and systematize day-to-day decision making in maintenance. RA, in order to generate realistic…
