Reliability Radio EP 364: Dr. Karl Hoffower, Failure Prevention Associates - IMC25

As the veteran workforce retires, industries are facing a massive loss of specialized knowledge. Dr. Karl Hoffower joins hosts Jonathan Guiney and Brendan Russ to explain why AI isn't a "magic bullet" for swinging wrenches and how a lack of leadership incentives often leads to repetitive equipment failure. Drawing from his background as a chiropractor and neurologist, Dr. Hoffower shares how he adapted human medical diagnostics—like x-rays and EKGs—into high-level vibration and oil analysis for industrial machinery. Discover why "value engineering" and procurement bonuses might actually be ruining your plant's reliability and how a Reliability Intervention Team (RIT) can save your bottom line.

You can ask anything about maintenance, reliability, and asset management.
