Introduction:

Rotating equipment such as pumps, compressors, turbines, and motors are vital to the continuity of industrial and energy operations. To maximize their lifecycle and minimize unexpected failures, skilled repair and overhaul practices are essential. This training program, designed by Global Horizon Training and Consulting Center, provides in-depth technical knowledge and hands-on insights into the inspection, disassembly, fault diagnosis, repair, reassembly, and testing of rotating equipment.

Objectives:

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

• Understand the construction and operation of various rotating equipment.

• Apply proper disassembly and inspection procedures.

• Diagnose typical faults and wear patterns in components.

• Perform mechanical repair and reassembly procedures.

• Follow OEM standards and safety practices in overhauling processes.

Course Methodology:

• Interactive technical lectures with detailed component visuals

• Real-life maintenance case studies

• Demonstrations and step-by-step teardown/rebuild examples

• Group exercises focused on fault diagnosis and repair techniques

• Safety reviews and procedural checklists

Organizational Impact:

• Reduced downtime due to proactive repairs and standardized overhaul
