Course Description
This course is made available through the eLearnAfrica and FutureLearn partnership.
Explore maintenance engineering basics, and see why it’s essential to industry
Maintenance of company equipment, procedures, and budget has always been important to ensuring optimal business performance.
However, it has moved on from the trial-and-error approach used in the beginning of the twentieth century. Modern maintenance engineering involves applying engineering principles to optimise company equipment, budget, and procedures.
On this three-week course, Luleå University of Technology will introduce the science, management, and other principles you need to be a maintenance technician in the 21st century.
Learn maintenance engineering and technology basics
The course begins with a thorough review of what maintenance engineering is, why it’s important, when it should be performed, and the tools and technologies it uses.
The material is presented through practical and easy-to-understand examples, and you’ll find it extremely helpful whether you’re a new learner or a practiced maintenance technician.
Understand and preserve reliability/maintenance balance
Once you’re comfortable with the basic concepts, you’ll explore the relationship between reliability and maintenance, including how to measure and evaluate these key performance indicators.
With the insights that you gain, you’ll appreciate not only how maintenance impacts reliability, but also the production costs and impacts of maintenance failures.
