iLearnReliability Enterprise Edition

The iLearnReliability Enterprise Edition enables you to achieve your goals because it helps you create the reliability culture throughout the organization and it provides the strategy and education to make the required changes.

The Enterprise Edition focuses on reliability improvement and condition monitoring can do for an industrial facility. Reduction in costs, improvements in availability, and reduction in safety and environment incidents all contribute to the financial viability of the organization and the well being of employees and shareholders.

But achieving these goals has proven difficult for most organizations. Some hire consultants, only to find the plant returns to the bad old days soon after they leave. Some try training a select few to become expert in the subject, but that approach struggles because there is no plant-wide-buy-in, and people believe reliability improvement is the responsibility of the reliability group alone. That is the wrong approach. Reliability is everyone’s approach. Some try a ‘home-grown’ approach of external courses and internally developed e-learning. And there have been other attempts, from classical RCM to Lean, Sixth Sigma, TM, and others. It’s not to say that those approaches don’t make an improvement, but they often don’t result in a sustainable improvement

iLearnReliability Enterprise takes a afferent approach. It provides training to everyone, from the most senior management to the plant-floor workforce. Everyone learns now they contribute to the reliability improvement initiative.

Topics covered

iLearnReliability [Enterprise] covers the topics that your team will need to master in order to understand asset management, leadership, the strategy of plant reliability improvement and the individual building blocks required for a successful implementation.  We have categorized them for simplicity:

Strategy, Leadership And Culture Change

Roadmap to Reliability | Leadership and executive sponsorship | Benchmarking and KPIs | Developing a reliability culture | Change management

Reliability Improvement

Criticality Analysis | Defect elimination | RCM Reliability Centered Maintenance | FMEA Failure Mode Effect Analysis | PMO Preventive Maintenance Optimization | RCA Root Cause Analysis | ODR Operator Driven Reliability

Maintenance

Maintenance practices | Master Asset List | Preventive maintenance | Condition Based Maintenance

Condition Monitoring

Condition monitoring | Vibration analysis | Ultrasound | Oil analysis | Wear particle analysis | Infrared analysis | Motor testing

Precision Skills

Shaft alignment | Soft foot | Balancing | Lubrication | Contamination control

How it works

When you purchase the iLearnReliability Enterprise Edition we will create a Web-based learning management system just for your organization. We will customize the Web address in the form https://companyname.ilearnreliability.com, all of the training modules are available on that site.

We will provide a person from your company with access to the administration functions of the site. This will enable you to create accounts for other people. We hare made this task because we created 30 common profiles: engineers, condition monitoring technicians, plant-floor craftspeople, and more. You simply create an account and assign them to one of these profiles and they will have access to the appropriate training modules.

But you have total control. You provide people with a little bit of training at a time. You can decide to give people more or fewer training modules. And you can decide who should take quizzes and who should not.

And you can track the progress. You can see who has been assigned to what, and you can see who has completed their training. And you can see how they did in the quizzes.

The only limitation is the number of users. We offer subscription packages and if you buy a license for 20 users, then you cannot create 21 user accounts.

When you create an account for a person they are sent an e-mail with a link. They simply click, log-in, and click to learn.

Demonstration

Ready to see it in action? Mobius have provided two ‘Essential Elements’ modules that cover the topics of:

• Reliability Roadmap
• Vibration Analysis
• Lubrication contamination control

RMS Reliability Institute offers distance learning courses for vibration analysis at the Category I-IV level. You can learn at your own pace, with assistance from an instructor, and optionally take the exam at the end of the course.

Distance learning benefits

If the high cost of travel and accommodation, and the time away from your family and work has stopped you from receiving the training that you need, then you should consider our distance learning courses.

At a time that is convenient to you, and at a pace that works best for you, you can take our lessons and learn in a very similar way to attendees of our classroom courses. Depending upon the course, you can either view fully narrated slides, or you can watch a video of the class in action.

Narrated slides

Utilizing the popular iLearnVibration and iLearnAlignment products, we offer distance learning courses where you can view the lessons at your own page, in your own time, and get assistance from an instructor when any questions arise. Of course, you can just buy the products and learn at your own pace without assistance, but you are sure to benefit from interaction with the instructor. In certain courses, you can also interact with other students.

Video lessons

These are not noisy, unprofessional videos taken from actual classrooms, each video was carefully created and edited so that you receive the full benefit. As you can see in this sample, you see the instructor talking and you see the slides (and simulators) being used in high resolution. All you need is a good Internet connection and a good monitor (1024×768 or better) and you will be ready to start learning. You can pause and rewind the video so that you can see and hear the instructor cover the topic again.

In addition to the lessons, hands-on videos are presented where a variety of vibration analyzers are used to perform a range of tests. The analyzers currently include (in alphabetical order) the AzimaDLI DCX, Commtest 4-channel VB-8, Emerson 2120 and 2130, PRUFTECHNIK VibExpert, Rockwell, SKF, and SPM Leonova Infinity. The tests include demonstrations of averaging (linear, rms, and peak hold), bump tests, run up and coast down tests, simple ODS tests, bearing fault detection tests, phase analysis, live spectrum analysis, time waveform analysis, and more.

You can also perform activities defined by the instructor, and take quizzes that will be reviewed by the instructor.

This is a great way to learn. The convenience of learning from home, and the reduced costs associated with travel, meals and accommodation make this a very attractive option – especially while the world’s economy is still recovering.
