Cost Savings and Plant Performance Improvement through Reliability Engineering

Failure or Breakdown of plant & machine not only has a direct impact on plant performances but also contributes to the overall cost of the product & services. Failures are also major concerns for the environment and the safety of the people. Hence, achieving the highest level of plant & machine reliability shall be the focal point for all personnel.

In one hand, due to technological advancement, day by day, plant & equipment maintenance is becoming a highly specialized activity and on the other hand, ascending cost of failure has been becoming a challenge. A balance between these two contradicting factors calls for effective planning and scheduling. Proper planning prevents poor performance by reducing the cost of poor quality. Managing the reliability of the plant & machinery would be easy if we are able to plan a failure.

Where mantra is Cost Saving and Performance Improvement, it becomes the order…
