Martin Williamson, Noria UK Limited
Like so many attendees in a Noria training class, Bill was no exception.When asked why he was there, he replied, ‘To learn a little more about oil analysis, so I can get the full value from my oil analysis program.'
A little later, in a side conversation, Bill was heard to lament the fact that he recently had to rely on his vibration analysis to spot a failing gearbox at his paper mill.The fact that no single technology is capable of detecting all of the problems in all of the machines is why integrated technology condition monitoring is crucial.Nevertheless, Bill, who was responsible for the oil analysis, naturally wanted his program to stand proud, so missing a failure left him frustrated.Fortunately for the class, he had brought along copies of his oil analysis report relating to this unit.
