FMEA & RCA - The Cycle of Continuous Learning

FMEA & RCA - The Cycle of Continuous Learning

Most failures happen at the component level. In order to safely maintain an accepted level of reliability, we need both proactive and reactive learning strategies. FMEA and RCA are the keys to this cycle of learning.

The Keys to Solving Fatigue: The Silent Killer

The Keys to Solving Fatigue: The Silent Killer

Fatigue is a failure mode that every manufacturing plant will experience at some point and can become chronic if not solved. While understanding fatigue has advanced since its inception in the early 1800s, there are still some misunderstandings in manufacturing in solving these failures. A characteristic of fatigue failures is stress, which is typically below the yield strength of the material. This is what makes fatigue a silent killer.

Putting the Fun Back in Functional Processes

Putting the Fun Back in Functional Processes

TRC-2018 Learning Zone 30:15
by David Auton, C&W Services

Common approaches to maintenance improvement include Failure Mode Effects Analysis and Root Cause Analysis. Most improvement projects are considered as individual and isolated. Understanding how your maintenance organization operates in a complex system of people and machines with needs and desires will help in your maintenance planning approach. Why does fixing one problem result in finding more problems? Why do the solutions tend to become more and more complex? There are really only three responses to any root cause; understanding these responses and how to manage them will provide more control over the improvement program. This presentation is based on System Thinking approaches to problem-solving.

Some Plain Talk About Nuts and Bolts: Part 2 of 2

Part 1 of this two-part Q&A series covered torque specifications, why good tightening practices are important and fastener identification. This next Q&A provides detailed information answering frequently asked questions about the hardware to help you understand what is involved with quality bolting practices.

Some Plain Talk About Nuts and Bolts: Part 1 of 2

When you look over the list of projects you’ve worked on in the last 20 or so years, it’s amazing how many involve fastener problems. Some are relatively easy to solve, especially where careless practices have resulted in fatigue failures. Other problems are much more sophisticated, such as aluminum rivets clamping aluminum sheet metal that failed from galvanic corrosion! In Part 1 of this series, a Q&A addresses some of the important points connected with common bolting practices.
