Step into the realm of proactive machinery care with the #reliabilitygang as we reveal how condition-based maintenance strategies can revolutionise the way you approach maintenance. Unlock the power of letting your equipment's condition prompt maintenance actions, mitigating the risk of 'infant mortality' in new parts and steering clear of the pitfalls inherent in traditional preventative practices. Our conversation is rich with insight on the unpredictable nature of failure modes—bearings being a prime example—showcasing the necessity of vigilant monitoring to ensure longevity and reliability in your machinery.

Will Crane  and Will Ocean talks about the dance of vibration analysis and ultrasound monitoring. We dissect the complexities of machine 'heartbeats,' learning to interpret these vital signs accurately with the different technologies available and how to use them with precision for measuring different parameters . Our discourse isn't complete without delving into the heat of things; thermal imaging stands as a pillar of our discussion, where we unpack the nuances of emissivity values essential for precise temperature assessments. Armed with a multitude of monitoring strategies, from oil sampling to motor current testing, this episode is your guide to a comprehensive approach to fault detection and the maintenance of industrial equipment. Join us for a deep dive into the technologies that maintain the pulse of our machines.
