FUNDAMENTAL MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION OF INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT Kindle Edition

This book is written for mechanical and electrical undergraduate engineering students, maintenance engineers and diploma engineers for providing a generalized and special knowledge in maintenance and operation of industrial equipment (mechanical, robotic and electrical) so that they can properly manage and supervise the maintenance and operation job. Moreover, vocational technicians can also read this book so that they can directly utilize this knowledge in many areas of their works including establishment of preventive maintenance schedule, following repairing specifications, and other maintenance and operation instructions of this book etc.The knowledge and learning of this this book can help maintenance engineers for proper the maintenance and operation of industrial equipment as described in the different chapters of this book (i) Leakages and prevention of leakages from industrial equipment (ii) Hydraulic system used in vehicle and robotic equipment and developing program code for robotic motion control, (iii) Repair of bearing, piston, piston ring, cylinder & predicting the bearing future life (iv) Lubricants and their properties, grading of lubricant & research paper on vegetable and mineral base lubricant (v) Establishing maintenance schedule for IC engine and equipment (vi) Computer aided trouble shooting for IC engine and developing program code (vii) Repairing of water pump, starting motor and alternator (viii) Construction of HT & LT Line, and underground cable laying (ix) Installation of transformer and & electrical wiring with load calculation, and (x) Inventory of equipment, procurement of consumable parts and maintaining proper store account. Moreover three nos. program codes on robotic motion control and two nos. program codes on fault diagnosis are developed and included in this book so that the students can understand and develop program codes for their works and interests.Proper maintenance of industrial equipment can prevent premature failures by reducing undue wear and tear. Moreover, proper maintenance increases longevity of equipment and reduces maintenance and operation cost.In most of the countries, nearly seventy percent of engineers and diploma engineers of industries are serving on maintenance and operation of industrial equipment but their course curriculum contains few or no course on maintenance and moreover books are not available in integrated forms except the operation manual or owner’s manuals of the supplying equipment. The developed countries manage special training for their project equipment when required. But many industrial engineers are not getting sufficient opportunities to gather maintenance knowledge from their course curriculum or for lack of training. This book can help the maintenance engineers of industries to build up a generalized and specialized knowledge in different fields of maintenance & operation including developing program codes in robotic and fault diagnosis of industrial equipment.
