Improving Performance of Hydraulic Pressure Equipment

Improving Performance of Mining Equipment Through Enhancement of Speed Factor: A Case Study (Research Note)

Loading and hauling machineries are highly capital intensive equipment to procure, operate and maintain in surface mining operation. It must be borne in mind that with this huge and capital-intensive equipment, every second of its life time is absolutely important from the production and productivity point of view. As such, it is imperative to optimize the overall cycle time and speed factor of...

Useful Methods for Improving Equipment Performance in Manufacturing

Improving the performance measurement using overall equipment effectiveness in an automotive industry

Considering the present business competitive scenario, the automotive industry is under pressure to achieve higher productivity. A high level of performance and quality standard could be achieved through improving the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of the equipment in an automotive industry. Thus, the aim of this study is to investigate the performance measurement through OEE theory in a...

Design and Application of Hydraulic-Walking Incremental Launching Equipment

This work designs a novel hydraulic-walking incremental launching equipment. The working principle of the equipment is proposed. Considering that the contact in incremental launching construction is a typical elastic contact problem, and changes in contact state will directly affect the stability of the incremental launching, this work proposes the equilibrium equations of computational contact...
