Best Lubrication Practices with Wes Cash – CONNECT Conversations
Proper lubrication is the lifeblood of any organization’s equipment. Contamination, impaired fluid properties, and wrong lubricants lead to machinery failure. In this session, we’ll be reviewing lubricant analysis for determining whether or not new oil/grease is in proper condition, and appropriate analysis to be done on an ongoing basis to assure that the lubricants in use are in proper condition.

Simple and Easy Steps for Implementing Predictive Maintenance in Machinery using High Frequency Vibration Data and Edge AI
Currently, the most commonly used standard for maintenance processes is Time-based Maintenance (TBM) that involves inspection, repair, and part replacement at regular intervals. In general, TBM is not optimal and cost effective. On the other hand, Condition-based Maintenance (CBM) involves the utilization of various types of sensor data collected from machines to perform repairs or other countermeasures before malfunctions or anomalies occur, hence reducing the unnecessary cost of maintenance.

Profitable Condition Monitoring
This webinar covers how condition-based maintenance fits into Industry 4.0 and examples of what a KPI toolbox can include. Hedlund provides models, such as the DuPont model, that show how we can use CBM to influence the ROI of a company. At the end, he illustrates his point with a case study from a paper mill.
