Overview:
Predictive maintenance (PdM) programs are formed to eliminate unnecessary maintenance, improve quality and increase capacity. Most predictive maintenance programs use vibration monitoring as the key component. To be successful, a comprehensive program must include other monitoring and diagnostic techniques. During this five-day course, you will determine which predictive technologies to use and how to apply them in an effective predictive maintenance program.
Topic Highlights:
- Predictive Maintenance as an asset management strategy
- Predictive Technologies
| - Predictive Maintenance Plan
- Resources and Action Planning
