Training Course Overview
In today’s high-pressure industrial landscape, unexpected machinery downtime caused by bearing failures can severely affect both productivity and profitability. The Advanced Bearing Root Cause Damage Analysis (ISO 15243:2017) training course goes beyond basic troubleshooting, providing maintenance and reliability professionals with the advanced skills necessary to accurately identify and determine the root causes of complex bearing failures in critical rotating machinery.
Based on the globally recognized ISO 15243:2017 standard, this course allows participants to master the classification system, offering a consistent framework for effectively categorizing various bearing damage mechanisms. The training delves into the complex factors that contribute to bearing failures, such as operational conditions, lubrication practices, contamination, and installation errors, covering issues like fatigue, wear, corrosion, electrical erosion, and handling damage.
By blending theoretical knowledge with practical case studies and visual examples, this course helps participants develop the critical thinking and analytical skills required for successful root cause failure analysis. This will empower professionals to implement targeted corrective and preventative actions, leading to significantly enhanced machine reliability, reduced unplanned downtime, optimized maintenance practices, lower maintenance costs, extended asset lifespan, and improved safety.
Upon completion of this course, you will gain the confidence to make a direct impact on fostering a culture of reliability excellence within your organization, in alignment with best practices for machinery lubrication and asset management.
This training course will feature:
- Improved Machine Reliability: Addressing true root causes of failures
- Reduced Unplanned Downtime: Minimizing costly production interruptions
- Optimized Maintenance Practices: Shifting to proactive and predictive strategies
- Lower Maintenance Costs: Reducing bearing replacement and repair expenses
- Enhanced Asset Lifespan: Maximizing return on investment for critical machinery
