TWO MARKS QUESTIONS WITH ANSWER
UNIT I
1. Define maintenance?
Corrective maintenance is the program focused on regular planed tasks that will
maintain all critical machinery and system in optimum operation conditions.
8. List the objectives of corrective maintenance.
UNIT II
1. Classify various planned maintenance approach.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Preventive maintenance
Corrective maintenance
Predictive maintenance
Condition based maintenance
2. List out some condition based monitoring techniques and briefly discuss on them
1. Vibration monitoring
2. Thermograph
3. Tribology
4. Electrical motor analysis
3. What does safety, health and environment pillar of TPM aims at?
This pillar aims at achieving Zero accident, Zero health damage and Zero fires.
4. Name the five S principles used for implementations of TPM.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Interstitial monitoring
level monitoring
Vapor monitoring
Liquid Monitoring
h = (Z1 + Z2 + Z3+....+ZT)
________________
T
Where Zt represents
Failure rates over the specified period of time T.
5. Define Mean Time to Failure.
Let t1 is the time to failure for the first specimen, t2 is the time to failure
for the second specimen and t n is the time to failurefor the nth specimen.
Hence the mean time to failure for N specimens are
MTTR = (t1+t2+......+t N) /N
6. What is Mean Time between Failures (MTBF)?
Mean Time between Failures (MTBF) is the mean or average time between
Successive failures of a product. Mean time between failures refers tom the average
time of breakdown until the device is beyond repair.
7. Define Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)?
Mean Time to Repair is the arithmetic mean of the time required to
perform maintenance action. MTTR is defined as theRatio of total
maintenance time and number of maintenance action. MTTR = Total
maintenance time/ Number of maintenance action.
8. Define Maintenance Action Rate?
Maintenance action rate is the number of maintenance action that can be carried out
on equipment per hour.
9. Define Failure Density?
Failure Density is the ratio of the number of failures during a given unit
interval of time to the total number of items at the very beginning of the
test.
10. State the types of reliability?
1. What is safety?
A thing is safe if its risks are justified to be acceptable designer thing is said to
be safe if for the person who judges the perceived risk is less.
2. Define productivity.
Productivity is a measure of economic efficiency which shows how effectively
economic inputs are converted into outputs. Productivity is measured by comparing
the amount of goods and services produced with the inputs, which were used in
production.
Provide first aid and medical care to injured person(s) and prevent further
injuries or damage
UNIT V
1. What is color coding? Give examples.
A color code or color code is a system for displaying information by using different
colors.
WHITE Proposed Excavation
PINK Temporary survey marking
RED Electric power lines, cables and lighting cables.
2. What is safety standards?
Safety standards are standards designed to ensure the safety of products, activities
or processes, etc. They may be advisory or compulsory and are normally laid down by
an advisory or regulatory body that may be either voluntary or statutory. China has
recently experienced trouble with some of the post listed associations.
3. Name the safety devices used in machine shop machineries.
a)Safety glasses
b) Closed toe shoes or boots
4. What are the safety considerations in material handling equipments?
When deciding what material handling equipment to use, it is important to take into
account the generalcharacteristics of the equipment types available in the market.
Then, the decision maker should determinewhich equipment matches better to the
required application.
5. Name the equipments used in material handling.
a)Conveyors
b)Cranes
c)Trucks
d)Hoists
6. What are the safety considerations in pressure vessels?
When deciding what pressure vessel to use, it is important to take into account the
generalcharacteristics of the equipment types available in the market.Although
pressure vessels designed and constructed to one of therecognized design codes have
had an excellent safety record, some recent eventsindicate a basis for concern about
continuing reliability and safety, especially when coupled with the current trend of
extending service usage.
mandatoryto take into consideration the aspects related to hazards. Risk mitigation or
risk assessment therefore needs to be carried outat various levels.
