Improved Availability Processes from Reliability

Abstract

This research was conducted in the industry, “Cementos Cienfuegos S.A.”, its main objective was to implement a method for improving the technical availability of the production processes. The method described uses classical analytical systems as a tool to improve the work of the operators of industrial facilities using checklists developed from the identification of the contribution of the unavailability of equipment to the failure of the technological system. Examples of application are the results in the cement technology systems, made on the basis of the reliability of the components of technological systems, specifically the process of raw materials. As a result of improvements in technical implementation process availability are obtained and, therefore, an increasing efficiency. The extension of this work can ensure the improvement of the general availability of the industry.
