UNACEM North America
Overview
Join to apply for the
Reliability Engineer
role at
UNACEM North America . Responsibilities Develop and propose Preventive, Predictive and Autonomous Maintenance plans for equipment, specifying and updating frequency for each maintenance task, based on normal operation and on the objectives of the Maintenance function. Analyze vibration spectrums/oil analysis with Maintenance Manager and Inspectors to timely detect and/or avoid equipment deterioration, and take actions when equipment needs attention or repairs. Record, analyze, and trend all data taken during critical equipment PM: gear and pinion profiles; gear root-to-tip clearances, contact, backlash, run-outs on all open gears; trunnion bearings clearances on Kiln and Mills; liner thickness; shell thickness on Kiln and Mills/Weld seams inspections; chain elongation measurements. Lead Root Cause Analysis (RCA) studies after failures of main equipment. Lead weekly RCA meetings, follow-up actions, and send reports to plant management. Collaborate with Maintenance Manager about the specification of new equipment, assuring Reliability of Operation and the lowest life cycle cost, and inform about design problems or incorrect selection of equipment. Analyze equipment uptimes and corrective actions to improve performance; generate Pareto graphs for main equipment failures analysis. Provide technical support and follow-up to major and highly specialized maintenance jobs. Ensure after all equipment repairs vibration/oil analysis is taken to verify the quality of the repair, and have a baseline of the equipment for future references. Participate actively in the generation of the weekly schedule with the Maintenance Planner to ensure all planned repairs are scheduled properly. Meet with Production daily to review downtime reports. Update logs for vibrations and tribology. Responsible for tracking oil consumption and generating requisitions for oils and grease needed. Other duties as assigned.
Knowledge, Skills & Abilities
A bachelor's degree in a technical/engineering field, such as mechanical or electrical engineering, is preferred. Minimum of 1 to 3 years as a mechanical or reliability engineer or 3 to 5 years as a technician in mining or cement manufacturing. 0 to 5 years of previous mechanical field experience in cement or related heavy industry. Vibration analysis, dynamic balancing, root cause analysis, oil analysis, project management, thermography, and precision alignment (preferred). Knowledge of Excel, PowerPoint, AutoCAD, SAP, Project Management; experience collecting vibration data with an Azima analyzer and thermal data with a Flir.
Work Environment
Plant environment up to 70% of the time; extreme heat, cold, noise, vibrations, dust. Office environment up to 30% of the time; computer work, record keeping, work orders, numerical analysis, failure analysis, contractor and vendor relations. Work under very stressful conditions and stay focused and calm. Walk around the plant, climb stairs, and use ladders. Exposure to noise, dust, and heat. Lift over 20 lbs of equipment and parts. Working at heights and in confined spaces.
