Operator Driven Reliability (ODR) Training

This one-day course is designed to provide a basic overview of lubrication management and how operator driven reliability can increase equipment effectiveness by reducing unplanned downtime.

Benefits

  • Reduced production interruptions through improved equipment reliability
  • Early failure detection by operators provides more time for planned maintenance and increases the equipment availability
  • Efficient use of personnel and equipment resources
  • Creates a culture of ownership and accountability with operators and the equipment that is maintained

Course Focus

  • Fundamentals of lubricating oils and greases
  • Physical properties and additives of lubricants
  • Correct lubricant for application
  • Effects of contamination – water, dirt, and wear metals
  • Proper storage, handling, dispensing and disposal as it relates to operations
  • Signs of problems and correct course of action (e.g. oil appearance, bearing temperature, incorrect oil level, incorrect grease quantity, grease compatibility issues).
  • Oil changes – when, why and proper procedure
  • Safety – MSDS, oil changes, re-greasing, and hazards
