OBJECTIVES:

• To enable the student to understand the principles, functions and practices adapted in industry for the successful management of maintenance activities.
• To explain the different maintenance categories like Preventive maintenance, condition monitoring and repair of machine elements.
• To illustrate some of the simple instruments used for condition monitoring in industry.

 

UNIT I             PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES OF MAINTENANCE PLANNING                               9

Basic Principles of maintenance planning – Objectives and principles of planned maintenance activity

– Importance and benefits of sound Maintenance systems – Reliability and machine availability – MTBF,  MTTR  and  MWT  –  Factors  of  availability  –  Maintenance  organization  –  Maintenance

economics.

 

UNIT II            MAINTENANCE POLICIES – PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE                                      9

Maintenance categories – Comparative merits of each category – Preventive maintenance, maintenance schedules, repair cycle - Principles and methods of lubrication – TPM.

 

UNIT III           CONDITION MONITORING                                                                                            9

Condition Monitoring – Cost comparison with and without CM – On-load testing and offload testing – Methods and instruments for CM – Temperature sensitive tapes – Pistol thermometers – wear-debris analysis

 

UNIT IV          REPAIR METHODS FOR BASIC MACHINE ELEMENTS                                           10

Repair methods for beds, slide ways, spindles, gears, lead screws and bearings – Failure analysis – Failures and their development – Logical fault location methods – Sequential fault location.

 

UNIT V           REPAIR METHODS FOR MATERIAL HANDLING EQUIPMENT                                 8

Repair methods for Material handling equipment - Equipment records –Job order systems -Use of computers in maintenance.
