17 Maintenance KPIs

Maintenance KPIs are performance metrics that help you measure how effective your overall maintenance process works.

You can use them to track the progress of your individual maintenance crews, as well as the overall performance of your entire organization.

 

These KPIs will be utilized across the site’s Maintenance Departments:
  1. LTIFR,  Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (both production and maintenance)
  2. Maintenance Cost per Hour vs. Budget
  3. Cost of Quality
  4. Maintenance Effectiveness
  5. Maintenance Efficiency
  6. Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF)
  7. Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)
  8. Preventive Inspection Effectiveness
  9. Ratio of Preventive to Breakdown Maintenance
  10. Backlog
  11. % Scheduled Man Hours Planned
  12. % Schedule Compliance
  13. % Planning Effectiveness
  14. % Man Hours Available
  15. % Rework
  16. % Failures Investigated
  17. MIP Process Effectiveness  (MIP = Management Improvement Program).

5 Important Maintenance Metrics and How To Use Them

By  Bryan Christiansen,  Limble CMMS. Source : maintworld.com Effective maintenance of equipment is a critical factor in delivering quality operations that provide timely resources at a minimal cost. However, those in the maintenance field understand that equipment reliability does not come easy.  Organizations need to set quality benchmarks to measure the current effectiveness and predict future performance and use the data obtained to understand where to make improvements.   One way to do this is by using different maintenance metrics to understand the equipment performance. These metrics are very important as they can mean the difference between achieving the overall business goals and explaining how unexpected breakdowns caused yet another production delay.   Maintenance Metrics You Should Be Measuring What are the maintenance metrics? There are two categories of maintenance key performance indicators which include the leading and lagging indicators....

Why Pump Shafts Often Break at the Keyway Area

By NTS Pump shaft failure can lead to significant downtime and repair costs in industrial plants. One of the most common locations for pump shaft failure is at the keyway area. In this article, we will explore the reasons why pump shafts often break at the keyway and what can be done to prevent such failures. The keyway is a high-stress point (weakest point)  on the shaft, where a key is inserted to transmit torque between the shaft and the pump impeller or coupling. During operation, the keyway experiences cyclic loading that creates a bending moment in the shaft, which is concentrated in the keyway area. Over time, this cyclic loading can cause fatigue failure in the shaft material, leading to a fracture at the keyway. In addition to cyclic loading, other factors can contribute to shaft failure at the keyway. Improper keyway design or installation can lead to stress concentrations or inadequate clearance between the key and keyway . Misalignment or overloading can also cause ex...

Preventing Motor Bearing Damage from Shaft Current with the AEGIS® Ring

Electric motors are the workhorses of modern industry, powering everything from pumps and fans to conveyor belts and heavy machinery. But these vital components are not immune to wear and tear, and one common problem that can lead to premature motor failure is bearing damage caused by shaft current. Shaft current is a type of electrical discharge that occurs when there is a voltage potential between the motor shaft and the bearing, resulting in the flow of electrical current through the bearing. This current can cause a range of problems, including pitting and fluting of the bearing surfaces, which can lead to premature wear and failure. Shaft current Motor shaft current can have several harmful effects on bearings, including: 1.      Bearing pitting and fluting: Electrical discharges can cause tiny pits and flutes to form on the bearing surfaces, leading to premature wear and failure. 2.       Bearing noise and vibration: Shaft current can cause ...

WHAT IS THE ULTRASONIC IN-LINE INSPECTION (ILI) PIGGING?

In-line inspection (ILI) of pipelines has established itself as the most efficient tool for evaluating the condition of a pipeline and an indispensable part of pipeline integrity management. Historically, there have been two major technologies used in in-line inspection for corrosion, the magnetic flux leakage (MFL) and ultrasonics (UT), each having their distinct properties and fields of application.  Ultrasonic (UT) ILI has always provided unique quality of information about the pipelines, rendering highest accuracy and tightest measurement tolerances. In the 1990s ultrasonic tools for detection of cracks have become available. Ultrasonic measurement principle: ultrasonic transducer slides along the internal surface of the  pipe wall measuring distance to the wall and the wall thickness (top), yielding the stand-off and the wall  thickness (bottom two B-scans) Ultrasonic (UT) based In Line Inspection tools for all types of liquid filled pipelines. This includes Ultras...

Dry Gas Seal Failure Modes

BY BHUSHAN NIKAM. Invented in the mid-20th century and typically equipped in process gas centrifugal, dry gas screw compressors and expanders, dry gas seals (DGS) are the preferred gas lubricated dry seal solutions available on the market. They have become the standard for new machines. DGS are robust, simple, consume less power, and are more efficient in reducing leakage than their predecessor. Various configurations such as tandem with and without an intermediate labyrinth ( Figure 1 ), single ( Figure 2 ), and double ( Figure 3 ) are available & shall be selected based on process requirements. In this article, we discuss the various DGS failure modes and how they should be addressed:  PRESSURIZED HOLD/STANDBY Pressurized hold, also called settle-out condition, occurs when the compressor remains at a standstill, but the casing is pressurized. If an alternate process gas lacks sufficient pressure and flow, process gas enters the seal cavity through the process labyrinth ...
