Reliability Based Maintenance (RBM)
- On-Line Vibration Analysis
- Laser Alignment
- On-Site Balancing of Rotating Equipment
- Infrared Thermography
Reliability Based Maintenance (RBM) is a maintenance strategy based on the benefits of Preventative Maintenance (PM), Predictive Maintenance (PdM), and Proactive Maintenance (PaM) in a way that eliminated unexpected equipment failures in the manufacturing arena. (RBM) is intended to redirect plant maintenance from being considered a “necessary evil” in being viewed as a positive integral part of the cash flow process.
Utilizing the RBM Systematic Process and working closely with the customer:
- We identify each piece of equipment (motors, pumps, gear-cases, etc.)
- Establish the performance criteria for each identified piece of equipment
- Develop a computer-based program in which to:
- Collect the desired data
- Analyse the collected date
- Produce a report of any issues found listing them as:
- Emergency Action (Immediate shutdown and corrective action suggested)
- Definite Problem (Suggest scheduling corrective action ASAP)
- Potential Problem (No immediate danger, corrective action needed)
- Comment (Minor problem may exist)
NOTE: All of our technicians are ISO Certified through the “Vibration Institute” a (“Not for Profit Organization”) at a minimum Level II Certification in Vibration Analysis. Also, all techs have their Laser Alignment Certification.
