The Connection Between RCM2 and the PAS-55 framework

The Connection Between RCM2 and the PAS-55 framework

An hour long presentation by Mike Schultz, CMRP, MMP, The Asset Performance Group (APG)

While the PAS-55 specification provides a framework for effective asset management, it does not dictate the methods for achieving PAS-55 compliance.

Improving the Reliability of a Turbofan Jet Engine

By Larry Tyson

Our team is directly involved in the reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) of a turbo fan jet engine. The engine fuel controller (FC) is one of the main components on the engine. Its purpose is to control the flow of fuel based on pilot demand from the throttle levers in the aircraft cockpit. If the FC does not operate properly, the engine does not receive fuel in accordance with pilot demand and may shut down. As can be imagined, shutting down an engine is not a good situation in flight.Improving the Reliability of a Turbofan Jet Engine by Using the Weibull Distribution for Failure Mode Analysis (WFMA)

NOTE: FM = FAILURE MODE, MAL CODE = MALFUNCTION CODE, they are the same

PM Template Methods – From Theory to Practice

PM Template Methods – From Theory to Practice

An hour long recorded webinar by Dr. David H. Worledge, President and CEO, Asset Performance Technologies, Inc.

There is extensive experience in many industries that shows that PM programs developed on the basis of OEM requirements or experience span the range from overbearing to deficient, typically lack a sound technical basis, and are hard to maintain. Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) has taught us that an adequate technical basis requires a functional analysis to establish the need for PM and an FMEA to decide what PM actions to take. However, apart from fleet applications or strongly focused efforts that are limited in scope, RCM in its traditional form has been found to be too resource intensive to be sustainable in most industrial environments.

Understanding the Difference Between Reliability and Availability

People often confuse reliability and availability. Simply put availability is a measure of the % of time the equipment is in an operable state while reliability is a measure of how long the item
