Course Introduction
Equipment failure is one of the primary causes of lost productivity, increased costs, and compromised safety in industrial operations. By transitioning from reactive to proactive maintenance—through preventive and predictive approaches—organizations can dramatically improve asset performance, reduce unplanned downtime, and extend equipment life.
This intensive five-day training program equips participants with the knowledge and tools needed to implement and manage effective preventive and predictive maintenance programs. It focuses on planning, condition monitoring, performance tracking, and integrating modern technologies to support data-driven maintenance decisions.
Course Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
• Design and implement effective preventive and predictive maintenance programs
• Identify failure modes and apply condition monitoring techniques
• Use tools such as vibration analysis, thermography, and oil analysis
• Evaluate maintenance effectiveness using KPIs and analytics
• Align maintenance strategies with asset criticality and reliability goals
Key Benefits of Attending
• Reduce unexpected breakdowns and costly downtime
