Fostering Asset Reliability from the Floor Level

Fostering Asset Reliability from the Floor Level

Conventional road maps and training indicate more than 70 percent of reliability initiatives fail because the programs supporting them lack backing by senior leadership.

Cloud Technology Condition-Based Monitoring

By Paul Berberian

Manufacturing and industrial facilities rely on rotating assets, such as pumps, compressors, fans, motors and turbines. Maintaining these critical assets is crucial to uptime and performance, yet it is estimated that less than 20% are consistently monitored to detect problems and determine their mechanical health.

Q&A - Leo Pike

Uptime Magazine recently caught up with Leo Pike, Administrator for Predictive Maintenance, Norampac-Mississauga. Leo has spent the last two years transforming maintenance at Norampac-Mississauga. Norampac is located near the Toronto International Airport in the city of Mississauga. This mill produces 160,000 metric tons of linerboard from 100% recycled fibers. Leo was charged with implementing ultrasound condition-based monitoring as a legacy project that could be transparently rolled out to other mills. To date, Pike has successfully implemented ultrasound-based trending and infrared thermography inspections on more than 90% of the plant's critical assets.

A New Opportunity for the Maintenance Reliability Community

By John S Mitchell

A new term has risen above our horizon. It is being embraced by companies committed to being the best and has great interest and cachet at the highest executive levels.

Uptime Alchemy: Developing Compounds to Implement Sustainable Change

by George Williams

For many of us, the road to reliability has had many ups and downs. At times, we feel overwhelmed with the enormity of effort required to make a positive impact on our organizations. This is compounded early in our journey when we quickly realize how many tools, approaches and methodologies exist, and how many opportunities for improvement we have at our facilities. Trying to have the biggest impact we, at times, jump right to advanced methods. Many an effort has failed due to an advanced methodology being utilized without laying the basic groundwork required to ensure a sustainable success. We, as reliability professionals, need to understand the relationship and interactions of these approaches and provide a level of understanding throughout our organization. To that end, it is time to major in…cringe…shriek…wait for it…“Chemistry.”
