WE 204 - Bearing Root Cause Failure Analysis

This 2-day course provides instruction on analyzing failed bearings to determine the root cause of failure. Students will learn inspection procedures and how to assess damage to bearings and their components from issues like improper mounting, heat, vibration and other operating conditions. The course uses lectures, hands-on workshops, and analysis of actual failed bearings from various applications to teach students how to apply the ISO methodology to identify the root cause failure mechanism. Key topics covered include bearing function, types of bearings, examples of mounting damage, the effects of environment, lubrication issues, vibration damage, and analyzing application-specific bearing failures from equipment like pumps, gearboxes and motors.

WE 204 - Bearing Root Cause Failure Analysis

Recommended for
Service, maintenance, machine repair, or plant/facility engineering staff of an industrial plant, OEM facility, institution, public utility or commercial building which uses rolling bearings and related equipment. Managers and technicians at industrial plants and OEM facilities responsible for rolling bearing performance and reliability. Rotating equipment engineers, reliability engineers, millwrights, mechanics, and maintenance supervisors. Those interested in rolling bearing and rotating equipment performance.

Course objective
To provide inspection procedures and instructions for analyzing failed bearings (due to mounting errors, heat, vibration, etc.) and their components. Students will learn to determine the true root causes of bearing failures and its impact on service life. Furthermore key aspects of machine reliability are explored.

Course description
The Root Cause Bearing Failure Analysis course is taught to the new ISO Standard 15243. The course is complemented with audio-visuals, lectures, hands-on training, and discussion of actual failures. Workshops include failure cause studies, visual damage assessment, failure mode detection and reporting. Participants will analyze actual bearings from various applications to assess the damage and apply the ISO methodology to determine the root cause failure mechanism. Specific topics include:

Bearing function

Learn how bearings support loads Bearing types and their use

Mounting damage

Examples of improper installation procedures

Operating environment

Bearing reaction to moisture, contamination, and other external influences

Maintenance

Results of poor maintenance practices

Lubrication

Effects of marginal and excessive lubrication Contamination and its effect

24

Vibration / Impact damages


How to identify this type of damage Implement corrective actions to avoid damage

Bearing failures

Application specific - pumps, gearboxes, motors, fans, extruders, compressors etc. See and inspect sample bearings that have failed - identify, and interpret actual bearing failures.
