What are the Factors of Equipment Life Cycle Improvement

Engineering Design Fabrication Installation Operations Maintenance

Engineering/Design
25-35% of equipment reliability issues are engineering and design related. Poor equipment selection
Motors, Pumps, Couplings, Equipment Options, Pump Bases, Gear Reducers, Fans, Conveyors, Packing Equipment, Etc

Improper sizing of equipment/components Improper piping design practices

Elbows on inlet flanges Pipe strain on equipment Torque methods on fasteners

Poor base/foundation designed/structures Understanding of factory Alignment/Balance

Engineering/Design
Who makes the best motor? Who makes the best pump? Who makes the best membranes? Who makes the best cartridge filter? Who makes the best actuators/valves? Who makes the best coupling? Who makes the best pump base?
Knowing the answer to these questions is what adds life and reliability to the equipment.

Reliability Engineering Pillars

Pillar #1 Knowledge Improving your knowledge and skills to understand equipment function and how components fail.

Reliability Engineering Pillars

Example of engineering knowledge:

How important is precision balance to equipment component life cycles? Using precision balance specifications can add 23 times the life to the bearings.

Precision Balance
A real life example of a loss of bearing life due to unbalance is as follows: Lets use the example of a 12 pump impellor turning at 3600 RPM. This impellor is out of balance by only 1 oz. The 1 oz. out of unbalance equals 275 lbs of additional force on a bearing designed for 1000 lbs. This reduces the bearing life by 48%.

2 mr(2 f ) F = mA = mr 2 = = 0.102 mrf 2 g

F=Force m=imbalance (lbs) r=radius of imbalance (in) f=rotational speed (Hz) g=386.4 in/sec2 Substitute 1 oz. (1/16 lb.), 12", 3600 RPM (60 Hz):

F = 0.102 x (

1 ) x (12) x (60 )2 = 275 lbs. 16

Thus, 1 oz. of imbalance on a 12" radius at 3600 RPM creates an effective centrifugal force of 275 lbs. Now calculate the effect of this weight on bearing life. Suppose that the bearings were designed to support a 1000 lb. rotor. The calculated bearing life is less than 50% of the design life as shown below.
Actual L 10 Life = (Design L 10 Life) x ( 1000 3 ) 1000 + 275 = 0.48 Design L 10 Life

Precision Balance
When you buy or rebuild a motor, pump, or any rotating equipment specify a balance standard of .05in/sec.

Precision Balance can be affected by not cutting keyways in shafts the correctly. The correct method is as follows using the drawing below. Measure from the end of the shaft to the edge of the taper of the keyway slot. This is A. Measure the length of the coupling, this is B. A + B / 2 is the proper length of the key. You are trying to replace the weight of the metal remove in the keyway slot
If keyways not precision cut then have 180 degrees apart

Reliability Engineering Pillars

Pillar #2 Implementation The ability of the reliability engineers or supervisors in implementing the knowledge of available information.

Reliability Engineering Pillars

Example of implementation: How do we effectively implement precision alignment.

NASA states precision alignment can extend bearing life up to 8 times.

Misalignment Failures
A study in the petrochemical industry realized the following results: Average bearing life increases by a factor of 8.0.

Maintenance costs decrease by 7%.

Machinery availability increases by 12%.

Implementing
Implementing precision alignment means having written procedures and methods to verify that it is actually happening in the plant.

Reliability Engineering Pillars

Pillar #3 Measures: The ability of the reliability engineers or supervisors to measure performance and report.

Measure
Examples of Measurements Maintenance costs/RAV OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) Reduced downtime

Reliability Engineering Pillars

Pillar #4 Management and Leadership: No plant process can be complete and successful with management and leadership.

Management & Leadership

What is a manager and what is a leader?
A manager is needed to manage the activities of the process. The leader must make sure everyone understands and constantly supports the reliability process and leads the plant.

Success for Peru

Lets keep the momentum going in Peru. Great resource organization with IPEMAN. Use the information and resources of SMRP and continue your studies to become CMRP certified. Lets make LAM more competitive in the world markets!
