Performance Measurement to Support and Enhance Reliability and Asset Management
In this tutorial presentation, Alaa discusses how to use performance measurement to support and enhance reliability and asset management by presenting the basis and pillars for selecting, measuring, presenting and using KPIs that accurately reflect our future business performance; these measures allow focusing our priority items and not waste resources on non-value added initiatives or programs, as the strategic approach to management focuses on effectiveness and results.

Why MEMS Accelerometers Are Becoming the Designer’s Best Choice for CbM Applications
A small number of semiconductor manufacturers have overcome the noise, bandwidth and g-Range shortcomings commonly associated with MEMS sensors used in Condition-based Monitoring (CbM) by producing several medium and high-performance MEMS vibration sensors with the latter being comparable to piezo accelerometers.

Switching Strategies: Moving to Condition Based Maintenance
Balancing cost reduction and efficiency improvement targets is a common source of frustration for maintenance and engineering managers. For facilities that operate continuously with no window for unplanned shutdowns, poor reliability and availability of machinery is far more serious, but even in factories with regular opportunities for maintenance, recovery can still be expensive and time consuming.
