Today we are going to look at Design Rates. Often times our equipment are not running at their designed rate. Most of which are operational issues. For example, we tend to slow down a line, to present less problems, but it lowers the target rate. How do we identify an actual opportunity?

Opportunities for Maintenance and Operations: No Part Replaced
This informative video provides valuable insights into how we respond to operations and help them improve their processes. By pulling data out of the CMMS, we can identify areas of opportunity and provide recommendations for improvement.
For example, by analyzing the data, we can see where operators may need training, or where improvements can be made in the incoming raw material process. Our goal is to provide practical, actionable advice that can help you maximize your resources and achieve success in your manufacturing facility.
[Read more…]Opportunities for Maintenance and Operations: PM Route
We are back with our 4th installment in the Opportunities for Maintenance and Operations series! We have discussed alarms, rework, and event rates. Today we talk about PM Routes. What can a PM Route do if our CMMS system has the ability to manage them? How does one take advantage? Watch the video and find out.
[Read more…]Opportunities for Maintenance and Operations: Rework
In our first two videos we discussed alarms and event rates. Today we will be discussing rework. What is rework? How can we identify rework? George has it covered. Check it out this latest video and if you have any questions feel free to leave a comment!
[Read more…]Opportunities for Maintenance and Operations: Event Rates
Last time we discussed Alarms in the Opportunities for Maintenance and Reliability series. This week we will be discussing event rates. What is an event rate? Watch George break it down!
[Read more…]Opportunities for Maintenance and Operations: Alarms
George will be discussing basic opportunities for Maintenance and Operations. This is an 8 part video series that covers things such as eliminating nuisance alarms, looking into event rates, and how we develop PM Routes. This first video covers Alarms. What does opportunity look like from an alarm perspective? In most plants, it’s likely you have some type of building automation. Systems and Alarms can go through what is called a Pareto Analysis. Watch to learn more!
