The 23rd International Maintenance Conference™
"Mastering the Maintenance Process"
December  8-11, 2008 - Bonita Springs Florida

Learning Labs are a regular feature at IMC-2008. 

Since IMC-2004 both SDT North America and ALL-TEST PRO have been offering hand's on learning labs for two foundational elements to any plant maintenance program with Airborne Ultrasound and On-line/Off-line Electric Motor Testing.  New for 2008 - Commtest Instrument, IRISS and Fluke are offering new learning labs for Vibration Analysis and Infrared Thermography.  Stop by to find out how you can win an Alienware Laptop PC.

Visitors are treated to the same learning session schedule as IMC-2008 learning regular tracks - with each learning lab track focused on its respective technology.

During the scheduled Expo breaks - lab visitors spend time with Ultrasound, Motor Testing, Vibration Analysis and Infrared experts in hands-on testing simulations.

The SDT, ALL-TEST PRO, Commtest Instrument, Fluke and IRISS Learning Labs offer IMC-2008 attendees a great way to pack a lot of information and experience in a short period of time.  In addition learning lab visitors will have a chance to win an Alienware Laptop.

So, we are offering a series of training/learning lab sessions that do precisely that – establish excellent skills and confidence with regard to understanding and applying vibration technologies. These sessions range in target audience from basic, intermediate, advanced and management personnel. These 45-minute sessions are instructed by knowledgeable staff with supporting lab demonstrator equipment.

The ATP Learning Lab is open starting Monday, at 4PM and runs all day Tuesday and then Wednesday until 1PM. 

Whether you are just starting to evaluate the benefits of an electrical motor and generator testing program or you are an experienced user of ATP equipment, you will find that a little time in the ATP learning lab will be well spent.

Off-line and On-line testing instruments are set up and demonstration motors available so you can fully experience the ALL-TEST PRO difference.

If you are new to ATP or motor testing, come in and discuss your specific reliability issues and let ATP show you a solution.

If you are an experienced user and have hardware, software or analysis questions please bring them by so their team of online and offline motor testing experts can provide the answer.

In addition to the hand's-on lab - ALL TEST Pro will be presenting two technical educational sessions:

Tuesday, December 9th

9AM to 11:30AM
Session 1- Evaluating Motor Drives using Electrical Signature Analysis (ESA)

12:30PM to 3PM
Session 2- Machinery Analysis using Vibration and Electrical Signature Analysis

Both seminars are not just for the technician, but are well suited for the manager that wants to better understand available technologies to improve motor system reliability.

*ATP learning lab is available after hours for equipment/software demonstrations or equipment/software training by appointment.

Join the infrared experts from Fluke and IRISS for a series of interactive infrared labs. In these hands-on exercises, guests will use infrared imagers to troubleshoot various electrical, mechanical and facilities maintenance issues.

Come and discover the benefits offered by thermal imaging – and see how easy it is to roll up your sleeves and get started: 

• Thermography Demystified – walk away with a better understanding of how thermography works in the real-world
   
• FOV/IFOV – what will an infrared camera “see” and measure
   
• IR Windows – see an installation and learn about the unique considerations for FOV, transmission, and environment
   
• IEEE, OSHA, NFPA 70B & 70E – what are the standards implications on thermographic inspections
   
• Successful Programs – learn how to avoid the common pitfalls and set your program up for success
   
• PPE – how mobile are you? Participate in our pit-crew-style PPE contest and win a prize!
