Course Overview
Scheduled Planned Maintenance and Predictive Maintenance addresses the traditional mindset traditional attitude on the part of maintenance that all breakdowns are the same and are all equally bad. This acceptance of the status quo is now intolerable and unacceptable in maintenance. A breakdown should be viewed with an analytical eye to see what difference it Made to PQCSDM. Most failures are the result of deterioration which when left unattended, results in breakdown. As such a strong scheduled and predictive maintenance is a must if one wants to eliminate such unpredictable failures.
This program provides the required know-how for participants to understand how to implement both the time base concept and the condition Base concept of preventive maintenance.
This training program introduces participants to the principles and methodologies of Scheduled Planned Maintenance (SPM) and Predictive Maintenance (PdM). Participants will learn how equipment deterioration occurs, how failures can be predicted before they happen, and how effective maintenance systems can be established to minimize downtime and maximize equipment performance. Through practical examples and structured approaches, participants will gain valuable insights into developing a maintenance culture that supports equipment reliability and continuous improvement.
Course Objectives
- To provide the insight of why equipments breakdown.
- To understand the real objectives of maintenance.
- Define why equipments deteriorate.
- How to use the time base schedule maintenance.
- How to use the condition base predictive maintenance.
- Strategize for zero unplanned equipment failures.
This course aims to help participants develop a preventive mindset by understanding the root causes of equipment failures and implementing effective maintenance strategies. Participants will also learn how to optimize maintenance resources, improve equipment lifespan, and reduce overall maintenance costs through planned and predictive approaches.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will understand and able to structure a good equipment breakdown prevention Program.
- They will know what causes equipments to breakdown.
- What is the real objectives of PM
- How to select critical equipment and parts.
- Systematic implementation of PM.
- TBM Vs CBM concepts
- how to develop a PdM cycle.
- Use of condition-based maintenance.
- able to practice predictive maintenance techniques.
Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to apply practical maintenance improvement techniques within their workplace. They will gain confidence in identifying equipment deterioration patterns, prioritizing maintenance activities, and implementing sustainable maintenance systems that contribute to higher equipment reliability and operational performance.
