In this three-day interactive hands-on course in the UT-RMC Training Factory you will:
Learn concepts to help run the business of Reliability & Maintenance using best practices for maximum results and ROI
Gain an understanding of the benefits of predictive maintenance, digital technologies and related tools and techniques (hands on)
Learn about transitioning the workforce (to improve digital skills and culture) towards Industry 4.0 and beyond
During the course you will make/assemble some parts and be hands on with technologies & tools to solve various asset/maintenance issues to gain a basic understanding for making better decisions in what you do or support.
Topics and technologies include standard work, importance of collecting good data, 5S, visual controls, ultrasound, vibration analysis, infrared thermography, motor testing, motion amplification, acoustic imaging, lubrication, human factors, safety, continuous improvement, coaching for success and “how to get there”.
Each section has a “take-away savings item(s)” that can be immediately used upon return.
Each day ends with a “must-know” review from daily activities.
Note: This course does not teach the use of technologies. It’s about practical application and understanding enough to make better asset-care and collective-thinking decisions.
