The Detection of Gear and Bearing Defects Using Electrical and Current Signature Analysis
In this presentation we will discuss how to use ESA/MCSA to detect bearing and gear defects in a variety of driven equipment including geared elevators, cooling towers, and other applications, even when we are looking at a few RPM. We will discuss how to determine the correct frequencies as well as how to determine the defect severity amplitudes in -dB, and how to isolate the machine you are testing from nearby machines. Several case studies will be presented including an AC building elevator, a cooling tower, and at least one complex (multi-stage) gearbox using both data collection and continuous monitoring.

Using PMO to Test and Adjust Asset Strategies
Typically, strategies for maintaining assets are put in place when the asset is installed or as a reaction to a failure. These strategies range from a run-to-failure to continuous CbM monitoring. As a function is continuous improvement, it becomes necessary to go back and evaluate that strategy's effectiveness. In performing Preventive Maintenance Optimization (PMO), you to leverage actual performance against various inputs that created the strategy (FMEAs, RCAs, or even knee-jerk reactions) to determine if any changes are needed.

The Basics of Machine Vibration
Vibration is the machine speaking to us about how it feels, but unfortunately it’s speaking in a “foreign” language! However, with the benefit of some training and “interpretation” skills we can begin to understand the symptoms. In this webinar we will review the basics of machine vibration, how it is measured, where it is measured, what is measured, and when we need to take action!

Understanding the New Age of Predictive Maintenance: AI, Machine Learning, and Predictive Analytics
The whole world is being transformed thanks to technological advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and predictive analytics. With the promise of Industry 4.0, and its application in everything from health care, movie ratings, and fraud protection - to name but a few - the world will never be the same. And with the availability of wireless sensors, fast networks, and massive storage, condition monitoring, and especially vibration analysis, will never be the same. There are giant commercial enterprises and small silicon-valley startups that have identified this opportunity, and industrial organizations that are finally waking up to the opportunity of predictive maintenance.

Help Your Reliability Activities Earn the Respect They Deserve
Have you ever worked extremely hard on a reliability initiative only to discover that showing the benefit of the work and the results of the improvement were nearly impossible to relay to management? Or if you were able to show the outcomes to management, they failed to understand the technical aspects of your final report? Although it sometimes seems that reactive maintenance gets all the credit mainly due to the ease of demonstrating success, I know that management is looking for reasons to reward you for your hard work. To get the recognition that you deserve, you need to be able to relay your work and improvements into something that management can easily interpret and understand what the results mean to the company.
