Course Introduction

Improve your understanding of gearbox working conditions in turbines, as well as how to be proactive and predictive in service matters to avoid expensive shutdowns. Furthermore, you will learn to understand wear and tear by being able to classify failures and their development. A complete gearbox inspection procedure is applied. Failure Analysis - Root cause determination of failure is critical in confidently returning the gearbox to service. 
 

Equipment maintenance
 

You will go through the entire system, from operational loads, equipment design, equipment maintenance, and failed components to determine failure cause and permanent corrective action Predictive Maintenance Program can be applied to track the health of your equipment and aid in scheduling gearbox maintenance, avoiding unscheduled equipment, or process shutdowns In this course you will learn to determine why the gear failed and what can be done to prevent future failure, help in getting timely and economical repairs, and provide a clear and concise report to aid in the recovery of losses due to the failure. So, you can shorten the turnaround of failed gears.
