Description
Mechanical equipment plays a pivotal role in the operation of engineering organizations and industrial plants. Professionals without a mechanical background often find themselves responsible for procuring, installing, operating, and maintaining such equipment. Understanding the basics of mechanical engineering is essential for ensuring these tasks are performed effectively and safely. This course introduces fundamental concepts such as the properties of engineering materials, metal fabrication processes, and the principles behind power transmission, lubrication, and bearings.

Participants will explore various types of mechanical equipment, including pressure vessels, storage tanks, heat exchangers, boilers, process heaters, industrial piping, pumps, compressors, and fans. Through detailed discussions and practical workshops, they will learn how to identify and select the right components for different applications, ensuring optimal performance and safety. Real-world case studies will offer insights into troubleshooting and maintaining equipment reliability, which are critical for minimizing downtime and maximizing operational efficiency.

This interactive and hands-on course is ideal for both non-mechanical professionals seeking foundational knowledge and those with a background in mechanical engineering looking to refresh their skills. You will engage in teamwork and problem-solving exercises, applying best practices for maintenance and operation to real-world scenarios.

Who Should Attend
This course is designed for a broad range of professionals who deal with mechanical equipment in their work environments.

The foundational mechanical knowledge provided will benefit plant and facility engineers, technicians, maintainers, and operators. Chemical engineers, process engineers, project engineers, and design engineers will also find value in understanding the mechanical aspects that intersect with their specialties.

Additionally, personnel from the armed services and any professionals involved in the maintenance or operation of mechanical systems are encouraged to attend. This course is equally beneficial for anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of mechanical equipment or update their skills in accordance with industry best practices.
