Diving headfirst into new technology might seem like a good idea at first. Especially when it comes to improving your plant’s reliability. In fact, when
We often hear the phrase “maintenance is key to reliability”. And while it’s true that proper maintenance is important, it’s not the only factor that

When it comes to improving reliability in your plant, culture is key to your long term success. Without establishing the right culture your hard-won improvements will simply erode over time. And before you know it, you’ll be back in that vicious cycle of reactive maintenance. But what is reliability culture? And how do you measure it? Can you even measure it? In this article, I will introduce the “Reliability Culture Ladder". It is a simple concept to help you assess your reliability culture. A Word of Warning: This is a long, in-depth article. I share in detail how I explored
Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) is one of the most widely recognised and yet least understood indicators in the maintenance and reliability world. Manufacturers quote it as a rating of their products and industry uses it as a measure of success. But there is so much misunderstanding associated with MTBF that there is even an online movement to abandon MTBF. In this article, I will explain in simple terms what MTBS is, what it’s not, when to use and when not. What is MTBF? It is said that the great Greek philosopher Socrates argued that “the beginning of wisdom is
Cutting maintenance costs is easy. Just stop doing the work and the costs are gone. Most industrial plants will keep running longer than we think when we adopt this type of indiscriminate maintenance cost reduction. But chances are we’ve all experienced the longer-term effects of bad decisions when it comes to cutting maintenance cost like that. With COVID-19 the pressure is on once again as all industries struggle to work through this global economic downturn. But instead of indiscriminate cutting, how about this time we adopt a more sustainable way to reduce maintenance costs? Let me provide you with a
Failure Modes and Effects Analysis – or FMEA for short – is widely used across many industries. Often in the design phase of new equipment. But also to troubleshoot poor performing equipment. In this article, I will give a detailed overview of FMEA’s. The origin of FMEAs, when to use them, and how to conduct an FMEA. I’ve also included an easy-to-use FMEA template. This is a long and detailed post, I will always bring it back to our main focus. And that is how to use FMEAs to improve plant reliability. What is FMEA? A Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is
