Joint OpEx-RPTA Session at PaperCon Explores Mill ODR Successes, Problems

The OpEx Maintenance and Reliability Workshop at TAPPI PaperCon 2013 in Atlanta, Ga., USA, on April 30, will include a special joint session with the Recycled Paper Trade Association (RPTA) that explores Operator Driven Reliability (ODR) from an up-close, mill case-study perspective. During this session, Christer Idhammar with IDCON examines what has been tried with ODR, who's succeeded, what's failed, and why—all based on mill case study results.

Also during the joint session, Dave Staples with SKF Reliability Systems will present a case-study implementation of an ODR system at a North American pulp and paper mill. Rounding out the joint OpEx/RPTA session, Jim Davis of Performance Consultants Associates illustrates how to effectively support ODR programs by building "The Perfect Maintenance Storeroom."
