Questions?

Here are some answers.

What, actually, IS “an optimal” solution?

An optimal preventive maintenance decision means finding the best balance between the risk of a costly in-service failure and the goal of getting as much usage out of the part as you can. This is the “lowest-cost” point. The best replacement time. For more, click Preventive Maintenance.

How does RelCode arrive at optimal solutions?

RelCode uses Weibull analysis, the globally-accepted standard for reliability analysis. Weibull analysis is the principal well-spring of most of RelCode’s replacement solutions. Learn more about Weibull analysis.

What inputs does RelCode call for?

RelCode's analysis is based upon your own in-plant experience. It includes failure occurrences and running times that can be found in your own records. There are only two kinds of numbers required, and the historical period need not be a long one. Look at our section on Failure Data.

Is RelCode Costly?

In a word … “NO”. Here's more information. All about licensing, user manuals, pricing, guarantees, and more.

RelCode: For the Line Manager or the Specialist?

Plant equipment repair and replacement decisions are made by managers who simply want to obtain basic guidance — when is the optimal time to replace the part. But they can also be made by engineers and reliability specialists to get a very complete statistical picture of a replacement scenario. See more on RelCode's equipment repair and replacement decisions.

What Graphs does RelCode Offer?

Root cause analysis is the prime reason for most of RelCode’s graphical displays. Their plots can enable users to quickly identify the kind of failure-patterns they're experiencing. RelCode's charts can be particularly impressive when they're copied out for reports or slide presentations. See our slideshow on RelCode's Root Cause Analysis graphs.
