Answers to your questions about PdM-2008 Predictive Maintenance Technology Conference
We could spent time telling you about the great food, the bottomless coffee and water stations, the free internet connection, the full day certificate workshops led by industry experts, the facilitated professional networking, the year round online community to extend learning and networking , the opportunity to meet current and past Uptime Magazine PdM program of the Year Award winners, and the Association for Maintenance Professionals breakthrough benchmarking session all managed by the maintenance conference management company with most satisfied attendees but you can discover that for yourself simply by attending PdM-2008 September 15-18 in Omaha Nebraska.
We thought we would answer the most common questions we get about the Predictive Maintenance Technology Conference instead.
What is Predictive Maintenance (PdM)?
Predictive Maintenance programs use sensing instruments to determine machinery health in much the same way a doctor uses medical instruments to determine human health.
Instead of stethoscopes, blood pressure, x-ray, ekg’s and blood tests, Predictive Maintenance technicians use vibration analysis, ultrasound, infrared, motor testing and oil analysis to gain early warning of pending failures in order to plan corrective action.
Why should we use Predictive Maintenance and Condition Monitoring to improve maintenance performance?
The short answer is based on several significant studies that show that only 11%-17% of failures are time or age related. On average 83%-89% of failures are random. Many of these random failures can be detected early - before a catastrophic shut down with predictive maintenance technologies.
Therefore if you are spending more that 11%-17% of your maintenance effort on time based Preventive Maintenance (PM) much of that effort is being wasted and does not prevent failure.
Learn how to make the shift to Predictive Maintenance at PdM-2008.
What will I learn at PdM-2008 Predictive Maintenance Technology Conference?
You will learn how at least 40 companies use predictive maintenance to increase uptime and reduce maintenance cost. That is right – case studies prove that effective predictive maintenance programs not only increase uptime and availability – they actually do so at a lower cost that time based, reactive “fix-it fast” maintenance programs.
Participants learn from others experience about what works and as important – what does not work as they move from reactive maintenance to proactive maintenance.
This conference offers value for beginners as well as advanced maintenance practitioners.
