Predictive Maintenance & Condition Monitoring for Rotating Equipment
Program Overview
A hands-on technical program covering condition monitoring technologies used to detect early-stage faults in the rotating equipment common to cement plants and mineral processing facilities, such as mills, fans, kilns, and pumps.
Target Audience
Reliability engineers, maintenance technicians, and condition monitoring specialists.
Learning Objectives
● Explain the principles of predictive maintenance and condition monitoring
● Interpret vibration analysis data to identify common fault types
● Apply oil analysis and thermography as complementary diagnostic tools
● Set up a condition monitoring program for critical rotating equipment
● Integrate condition monitoring data into maintenance decision-making
