Engineering Reliability and Masterclass
Duration- 5 days
Peakford institute runs 5 day masterclass on key topics for specific industries. These masterclasses are designed to develop and cement critical skills in a profession by incorporating currents trends and changes in the environment. The Peakford Masterclasses are designed with the premise that to remain effective professional need to keep abreast changes in their environment and profession. Most of our week long masterclasses lead to the accumulation of CPD points recognised by many professional bodies.
Engineering Reliability and maintenance Masterclass
Audience
General engineers, Senior Technicians, Maintenance and Operations Supervisors or Foreman, Plant or Equipment Operators and Maintainers Engineers, production managers, maintenance technician Design and/or process managers and engineers, manufacturing, quality assurance, reliability research, development, and safety engineering personnel, Quality or reliability managers/engineers, production/design engineers, and warranty analysts with engineering functions will benefit from attending this Masterclass.
Module Selection.
Reliability Engineering
Designed for practicing engineers, this module focuses on teaching you to increase product reliability. The module covers such topics as model product failure times, analyzing data to determine reliability characteristics, and other general data driven decisions to insure a reliable product. You will learn how to analyze life data to determine reliability characteristics and to achieve reliability improvement of a product. You will also learn about reliability testing for determining and demonstrating a reliability value, and design procedures that are necessary to ensure a reliable product.
Measurement Uncertainty
The focus of making quality measurements is to reduce uncertainty where possible, and to increase confidence in the measurements. It doesn't matter where the measurements are made: knowing about measurement uncertainty is important in expressing measurement results in design, manufacturing, or quality in the aerospace, medical device, automotive industry or a calibration laboratory
Failure Modes And Effects Analysis – Design
Gain a working knowledge of the FMEA tool as it is applied to the design of products.
Metrology Applications For Engineers And Scientists
This module focuses on the science of measurement. When completed, you’ll have a proper understanding of metrology concepts, basic statistics, reliability statistics and measurement uncertainty. This module is designed to familiarize Engineers and Scientists with Metrology, the science of measurement. A quantitative analysis of design based on sound metrology principles will help engineers and scientists to design better products and services.
In order to evaluate multiple solutions to the design, physical measurements are made and the data analyzed. Predictions need to be made on how well the design will perform to its specifications before full scale production begins. Tests are performed using prototype models, computer simulation, designed experiments, destructive and non-destructive tests, scale models and stress tests among the many other methods of evaluation.
In this module, you will learn to apply end-to-end metrology across all disciplines involved in producing a product. The role of metrology in the various phases of a products lifecycle will be covered.
Reliability Maintenance
Reliability-centered maintenance is a process to ensure that systems continue to do what their user require in their present operating context. It is generally used to achieve improvements in fields such as the establishment of safe minimum levels of maintenance.
Root Cause Analysis
If you’re responsible for problem-solving and improving processes, this three-day class will show you how to stop recurring failures. You’ll learn and practice a method to approach daily problem-solving with proven root cause tools. Unsure which tools to use when? Our RCA experts will help you understand the advantages and disadvantages of different tools and how to use the right one at the right time.
Reliability Engineering Excellence
The Reliability Engineer (RE) is the business advisor to facility maintenance and production. This strategic position is responsible for evaluating and predicting performance to achieve the greatest asset utilization at the lowest total cost of ownership. The RE sees all aspects of proper plant function, puts equipment first, and makes decisions based on how machines function and their impact on production. Just as a business advisor must balance policy and diplomacy, the RE must be dedicated to preserving asset reliability and managing risk.
Reliability Excellence Fundamentals
This is a dynamic, high-impact, interactive workshop where participants will experience the fundamental concepts of Reliability Excellence in order to drive performance improvement efforts within your organization.The class is a learning process that begins with a clear understanding of the learning objectives, behavior change expectations and desired performance improvement results. Then you will learn the tools and processes required to develop, implement and sustain word-class maintenance and reliability programs.
Reliability and Operations Excellence
Ever wonder how the world’s best Operations achieve their performance levels? Participate in this two-day workshop as we uncover the models for achieving Operations Excellence and how the best plants are able to maximize output and minimize costs using Reliability principles. During this class we will demonstrate how the relentless pursuit of defect elimination, asset productivity and workforce engagement will help you deliver dramatic competitive advantage - with increased plant capability, lower unit costs, and superior safety, environmental and quality performance.
Predictive Maintenance Strategy
Predictive maintenance is not a tool, technique or certification but a philosophy that uses the equipment’s operating condition to make data-driven decisions and improve quality, productivity and profitability. Unlike industry modules that focus on applying specific technologies like vibration monitoring or oil analysis, this module focuses on establishing, managing and sustaining results from a comprehensive PdM program. By the end of the module, you will have outlined what a successful PdM program can look like at your organization.
Planning for Shutdowns, Turnarounds and Outages
Master the basics of shutdowns, turnarounds and outages after attending this class. Reduce unnecessary costs by properly planning, executing and closing your shutdown. Participate in exercises such as analyzing your previous shutdowns, creating a timeline, planning lead time, and estimating costs, all designed to help you save time and money on your next shutdown. Optimize the process by discovering new tools and technologies that will create a backbone for effective plant maintenance and reliability. Walk out with a master checklist detailing the tasks for your next project.
