Monitoring and predictive maintenance methods are not reliable enough in indicating certain important problems in manufacturing equipment, such as cracking of power transmission components, inadequate lubrication of parts, and excessive cutting edge wear of a tool or die. These problems are best dealt with at the design stage. Plant and Machinery Failure Prevention is based on the premise of “Zero-Failure Performance”. The book introduces the general features and investigative methods at the design phase for determining failures in mechanical components such as: Flat Belt Failures, Vee-belt Failures, Pulley Failures, Gear Failures, Steel Wire Rope Failures, Spring Failures, and Gasket Failures.

Editorial : From the Back CoverMAXIMIZE PRODUCTIVITY BY KEEPING PLANT AND EQUIPMENT DOWNTIME AND UNSCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AT A MINIMUM Constant monitoring and preventive maintenance are not the most effective ways of avoiding common problems in manufacturing equipment -- engineers need better, more reliable methods. Packed with expert advice, Plant and Machinery Failure Prevention is based on the premise of "zero-failure performance," a method designed to assist maintenance engineers discover and solve problems in mechanical and electrical equipment before they occur. The author presents solid statistical as well as investigative methods for determining failures in mechanical and electrical equipment components -- including flat belts, vee belts, pulleys, gears, steel wire ropes, springs, gaskets, and more–at the earliest stage possible.

  • Comprehensive diagnostics on the nature/causes of equipment failures
  • Numerous case studies to emphasize key points and procedures

    Here is a very nice exposition of the basic work of Mises and a look at his life. It is no surprise to learn that books were his best friends as a child, but it is interesting to learn that he spent much of his childhood performing experiments in his home laboratory. King, and how his theology and background shaped what he did, and how he would never ask someone to do something he himself would not do. I am so pleased to review this enlightning book, I was so informed, and I am more informed because of it! This attorney has so many on- hand experiences to share with the world! He tells it straight and from a balanced perspective.. There is even a painting in one of the rooms by a New Zealand artist whose work I also havewhat a small world!. A very well produced book, with a quality CD inside. Nasar makes several clumsy errors in terms of spelling and grammar.
