Welcome
To the world of SKF Knowledge Engineering

It is no secret that recent economic outlook has brought challenging times for maintenance organisations. Companies have turned to
downsizing, re-engineering, and a host of other methods to increase profit and remain competitive in the new world market.
It is imperative we realise that the potential pay-off to be gained by optimising production and minimising costs through a welltrained, creative thinking, enthusiastic work force is far greater than size reductions.
"Do your maintenance staff practice best practices?"

What do we mean by proactive maintenance? What is world class maintenance? This all refers to overall precision maintenance skills.
These new skills include doing the big things correctly, like mounting bearings and seals, applying the correct lubricant in the right
amount at the right time with the right delivery system. Making sure the rotor is balanced and the machines are aligned - and doing
the little things correctly, like how to cut a piece of key stock and how to apply shims. We also need to understand how to inspect
and troubleshoot currently running equipment. These skills don't come from being on the job for a long time; they need to be
transferred to workers.
Why SKF for reliability maintenance training?

In 2015, we invite maintenance trades and engineering personnel to participate in relevant SKF courses and gain new knowledge
and skills that will have a positive impact on daily work and plant performance. Our courses will be tailored to site based applications
with an emphasis on a hands-on approach to provide basic troubleshooting skills and fundamental knowledge about how machines
and components operate internally.
Your employees will have the opportunity to learn from our experienced instructors, as they impart their knowledge on best in
class reliability maintenance practices.
Learning can take place in a conducive public or in-house environment, online where you can learn at your own time and pace or
as a blended option incorporating face to face training and online for maximum impact.
We would like to extend our congratulations to you in making your best business decision - that is, to invest in training for your
employees. We look forward to being your industry partner in learning, development and performance improvement, and to a
rewarding 2015.
Wish you an enjoyable learning experience!

Moving toward a world-class facility starts with

understanding where you stand today, and defining your
objectives for the future.
Ideally the client needs analysis will give you the opportunity to gain a clearer perspective on your
reliability program that is generally not possible while immersed in daily activities. Once the analysis
is complete, you will receive a comprehensive report that includes:
A summary of initial set-up details
A Spider Chart illustrating a micro-level assessment for each question versus the maturity phases
A Maturity Summary Matrix showing a macro-level assessment for all four main facets of the
Asset Efficiency Optimization Process versus the maturity phases

Step 2: Training Needs Analysis

Highest skills improvement opportunity for staff
Training Needs Analysis (TNA): The shift to a fully integrated, reliability and risk-based asset
management strategy starts with a good initial understanding of where your staff are today and
where your staff need to be to attain optimum plant performance.
The TNA enables this crucial understanding, combining our experience in training and knowledge
of maintenance and reliability. The goal is to provide useful and meaningful information to help you
focus on improvements for plant performance.
TNA is conducted with individuals or a group of your staff from the following work areas:
Superintendents/Supervisors
Mechanical Maintenance
Electrical Maintenance
Planning and Stores
Managers

improvements fall in the following areas:
1. Bearing and Seal Technology
2. Power Transmission
3. Lubrication
4. Oil Analysis
5. Vibration Analysis
6. RCA/RCFA
7. Ultrasonic Testing

Bearing Damage Classification
Balancing Basics
WE104
WE150
Course Overview
Course Overview
This course looks at bearing damage

classification. Understanding the root causes of
bearing failures can not only have the effect of
providing reliable bearing operation, but also
can avoid costly downtime. While most bearings
perform extremely well in their particular
application, the remaining bearing failures can
have expensive consequences. Bearing failure
modes are defined according to ISO classification.
This course provides a basic introduction to field

balancing from first principles.
Armed with this information, it is possible to

make sure that a bearing can perform flawlessly
in its particular role. The ISO classification
helps to improve communication, and avoid
misunderstandings. Classifying the damage in
the right way helps to understand what has
happened, to find the root cause and identify
solutions to prevent recurrence of the problem.

of a break down from various inaccuracies
and problems are quite significant. Hence,
a predictive maintenance based machinery
problem diagnostics is a must in ensuring
a trouble-free operation. Though there are
many methods of machinery fault diagnostics
(condition monitoring for example), one of the
most effective methods is Vibration Analysis.

Analysis of Resonance Related

Problems
Dynamic Analysis for Equipment and

Structural Analysis
Down time of equipments due to resonance in

a plant is very common phenomena. Solving
the same after understanding the same is very
important.
High vibrations in plant equipment due to

resonance are solved by using dynamic analysis.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is the scientific
method used for such analysis. FEA is used
for many other solutions including the design
optimisation.
Course Overview
The vibration can be greatly amplified if a forcing
function, such as unbalance, misalignment or
a blade pass frequency happens to be within
the range of a natural frequency. When such
forcing frequencies coincide with or nearer to a
natural frequency this phenomenon is known as
Resonance.

Course Overview
Maintaining proper hygiene is key to product safety compliance. Given the typical operating
environment for the Food and Beverage industry, this can be very challenging. High-pressure
washdowns can wash away bearing lubrication for rotating equipment, which often leads to
corrosion that severely limits bearing life, increases maintenance costs and creates flakingrelated hygiene problems. This course discusses the range of technologies to help prevent
these and other issues common to aggressive environments.

Electric Motor Maintenance
E-Learning
Course Overview
Electric motors are among the highest in reliability incident reports. For many companies, this
leads to a continual cycle of costly repairs and unplanned downtime factors that can hurt the
bottom line.
Since 40% to 70% of motor failures are related to bearings, its no surprise that high-quality
bearings are key for reliable motors. The right bearings alone wont deliver the results you
need. How parts are installed, lubricated, handled, stored, aligned, and maintained is equally
important
This training course will train students to disassemble, inspect, maintain, and troubleshoot AC
Induction motors including a practical motor overhaul.

1. An effective implementation of electrical
motor maintenance will translate into
savings from production availability, reduced
equipment repair costs and improved energy
costs.

understanding to perform optimal diagnoses
and repairs.

(MSR) Awareness - Level 1
Short Courses
Course Overview
Before we explore the technical details of strategy, we must know about each organisation, what
their issues are, why these issues matter, and how the issues can be incorporated into a plan.
There must be a documented need to look at an existing maintenance strategy or create a
new one for the right and unique business reasons. Maintenance Strategy is the key to asset
reliability and availability, thus achieving overall organisational goals. How do you know if a
review of your maintenance strategy is required and why?
Course Objective
The course objectives are to ensure that each
participant will:
know if a review of strategy is required and why
recognise the importance of data structure
and content before any kind of strategy work is
commenced
understand the importance of identifying and
categorising assets
understand that there are different types of
criticality at various levels of maintenance
understand what will likely be involved in total
to conduct the right analysis, but then what the
implications are of making the strategy work

Workshop
Course Overview
Many people buy an infrared camera with little more than a sales demonstration, and with
the false assumption that a camera is simply point and shoot. With limited knowledge of the
camera operation, and even less understanding of the cameras actual measure capability it is a
daunting task to be sent out in the field to collect meaningful data and present this information
to clients or superiors.
Who Should Attend
Upon completion, students will understand how

to use an infrared camera within the scope of
its capabilities, understanding its limitations, and
applying basic theory in a practical manner to avoid
common errors.
The Infrared Thermography Workshop is a first

step for people just starting out in this field. It is
aimed at inexperienced or first time users who
want to gain practical experience and insight into
the operation of infrared cameras and to start
them on the right path for practical use of their
instrument in the field.

Spare Parts Management and

Inventory Control - Level 1
Course Overview
In a maintenance repair and operating (MRO) environment, spares and inventory management
refer to those activities in an organisation that ensure at any time the optimal and timely availability
of spare parts in order to meet maintenance demands. In todays competitive environment, it is
important that the management and optimisation of spares inventory is always considered in the
context of supporting the maintenance function to meet its operational and business goals. Simply
reducing inventory is not enough. Ideally, the aim must be to maintain sufficient inventory and no
more such that production is never impacted by stock-outs whilst keeping inventory costs to a
minimum. In this way, inventory management and optimisation add real value to any business.

Becoming confident in building why? trees
and the 7 steps of root cause study
Students will be equipped with tools to resolve
complex problems and think laterally to
explore causes of a problem
Course Content
The key elements of Root Cause Analysis process
discussed include:
Working from existing corporate information
systems to capture events and incidents
where RCA will be beneficial
- Machinery failures resulting in actual or
potential loss of plant output.
- Machinery failure that represents a large or
unbudgeted repair cost
- Safety, health or environmental breaches
- Repetitive failures that collectively represent
an excessive maintenance cost.
- A non-conformance in maintenance strategy
Prioritise incidents and formally launch the
RCA study by defining the problem
Collect and preserve evidence that will provide
evidence on the incident
Expose the causes of the incident by building a
why? tree. In general each incident will have
three types of root causes
- Technical causes
- Human causes
- Organisational causes
Only when all three types of causes have been
exposed, can the RCA be considered complete
Propose practical actions that will address

root cause of the incident and develop a
business case for management approval of the
resulting actions
Following management approval, assign
actions for implementation and track actions
to completion
Measure the performance of the RCA program
through appropriate KPIs
Who Should Attend
