Perils - No MTBF

http://nomtbf.com/perils

A site devoted to the eradication of the misuse of MTBF : — ISSN 2168-4375. Every organization talks about product reliability in some manner. Sometimes our customers provide explicit reliability requirements. Sometimes our customers have an expected metric to report reliability expectations. Our industry may have a ‘standard’ means to discuss reliability. Or, we have a local ‘tradition’. One of the most common is MTBF. Note: if we had 100 units run for 50 hours and had one failure at the end of 50 hours...

A site devoted to the eradication of the misuse of MTBF : — ISSN 2168-4375. The Bad Reputation of Statistics. July 4, 2015. Statistics and the Bad Reputation. Eddy “Reliable” Trustman (Windows XP Professional). In a recent reliability seminar I learned that the younger engineers did not have to take a statistics course, nor was it part of other courses, in their undergraduate engineering education. They didn’t dislike their stats class as so many before them have, they just didn’t have the pleasure.

http://www.reliabilitynow.net/2012/07/is-your-maintenance-organization.html

Wednesday, July 18, 2012. Is Your Maintenance Organization Centralized Or Decentralized? What are your thoughts? July 18, 2012 at 5:58 PM. You are allowing logic to prevail. :-). Many companies have shifted back and forth between centralized and decentralized maintenance (many times) for other reasons (re-oganization, politics, power struggles, etc.) that are not as result-focused as the criteria in your article. I hope some others will chime in for a better discussion on this topic. Maintenance people s...

Setting a Cadence for your Failure Analysis Efforts. January 20, 2015. Middot; 3 Comments. Let me share a couple of ideas that I hope you will agree with:. Problems occur every day, both big ones and small ones. We cannot possibly address them all. The benefit from a failure analysis effort comes from finding the root cause of a problem and permanently eliminating it. Getting good at problem solving is a learned behavior that we must practice at, much like a golf swing or the ability to play music. When ...
