Book Description
Industrial Machinery Repair provides a practical reference for practicing plant engineers, maintenance supervisors, physical plant supervisors and mechanical maintenance technicians. It focuses on the skills needed to select, install and maintain electro-mechanical equipment in a typical industrial plant or facility. The authors focuses on "Best Maintenance Repair Practices" necessary for maintenance personnel to keep equipment operating at peak reliability and companies functioning more profitably through reduced maintenance costs and increased productivity and capacity. A number of surveys conducted in industries throughout the United States have found that 70% of equipment failures are self-induced. If the principles and techniques in this book are followed, it will result in a serious reduction in "self induced failures". In the pocketbook format, this reference material can be directly used on the plant floor to aid in effectively performing day-to-day duties. Data is presented in a concise, easily understandable format to facilitate use in the adverse conditions associated with the plant floor. Each subject is reduced to it simplest terms so that it will be suitable for the broadest range of users. Since this book is not specific to any one type of industrial plant and is useful in any type of facility. The new standard reference book for industrial and mechanical trades Accessible pocketbook format facilitates on-the-job use Suitable for all types of plant facilities

Book Description
Industrial Maintenance and Mechatronics is a comprehensive text that provides curriculum support for Industrial Technology Maintenance (ITM) programs. The text consists of 40 chapters grouped into sections that correspond to principal industrial technology disciplines, with a special focus on electrical systems and electronic controls. With an exclusive endorsement from NIMS, this learning program is designed to work hand-in-glove with the NIMS Smart Duties and Standards for Industrial Technology Maintenance, providing students with the necessary knowledge and skills for entry-level positions in industrial maintenance and helping them prepare for NIMS credentialing. Instructors and students will appreciate the convenience and value of a comprehensive text that can be used in multiple courses and programs. This organized, student-friendly text imparts need-to-know information in an accessible style. While providing the background theory instructors look for, the authors also explain why ITM students need to know it. They have drawn on a deep reservoir of industry and teaching experience to bring the material to life with Tech Tips and other features that support hands-on learning. As a member of the NIMS Technical Working Group that prepared the Industrial Technology Maintenance Duties and Standards, Mr. Shearer gained a deep understanding of the competencies desired by NIMS industry partners. Mr. Ballee is a member of the NIMS Advisory Council and he has also served on MSSC's National Expert Panel. Includes multichapter sections on Maintenance Operations, Basic Mechanical Systems, Fluid Power, Electrical Systems, Electronic Control Systems, Process Control, and Maintenance Piping, allowing the text to be used in multiple courses and programs Features three dedicated chapters on troubleshooting, frequent Tech Tips, and additional troubleshooting content throughout the text to prepare students for the challenges they will encounter on the job Emphasizes the development of safe working practices with extensive safety coverage in the text and numerous Safety Notes throughout the chapters

Book Description
New, global and extended markets are forcing companies to process and manage increasingly differentiated products with shorter life cycles, low volumes and reduced customer delivery times. In today’s global marketplace production systems need to be able to deliver products on time, maintain market credibility and introduce new products and services faster than competitors. As a result, a new production paradigm of a production system has been developed and a supporting management decision-making approach simultaneously incorporating design, management, and control of the production system is necessary so that this challenge can be effectively and efficiency met. "Maintenance Engineering and its Applications in Production Systems" meets this need by introducing an original and integrated idea of maintenance: maintenance for productivity. The volume starts with the introduction and discussion of a new conceptual framework based on productivity, quality, and safety supported by maintenance. Subsequent chapters illustrate the most relevant models and methods to plan, organise, implement and control the whole maintenance process (reliability evaluation models and prediction, maintenance strategies and policies, spare parts management, computer maintenance management software – CMMS, and total productive maintenance – TPM, etc.). Several examples of problems supported by solutions, and real applications to help and test the reader’s comprehension are included. "Maintenance Engineering and its Applications in Production Systems" will certainly be valuable to engineering students, doctoral and post-doctoral students and also to maintenance practitioners, as well as managers of industrial and service companies.
