03-06-2024 - 07-06-2024 3800 Istanbul

 

Course Introduction:

 

This course is for plant and reliability engineers, maintenance engineers, mechanical engineers, inspectors and managers who wish to increase their knowledge on the key aspects of designing and maintaining fixed equipment.

 

This course is intended for plant engineers in design, maintenance, reliability and inspection; project engineers involved with the purchase of new equipment; plant inspectors responsible for fixed equipment; maintenance staff interested in expanding their understanding of metallurgy; as well as associated individuals in central engineering functions.

 

 

Course Objectives:

 

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

  • Distinguish between materials such as austenitic, ferritic and martensitic stainless steels; locate, use and understand key information from typical industry standards;
  • Determine how the mechanical properties of some materials will be influenced by heat treatment;
  • Recognize some related issues such as failure analysis and material selection

 

 

Who Should Attend:

 

This course is especially valuable for recent graduate engineers and new inspectors, mechanical engineers, maintenance engineers and anyone who wish to gain more knowledge.
