Weibull Workshops & Seminars

Public Workshops on Weibull Reliability Engineering are organized by Holland-Innovative. More information is available in the link below. The aim is to have a minimal of 2 public Dutch Language seminars per year with a maximum of 12 students per workshop. This as personal tutoring and coaching is one the important factors of the Weibull workshop. Optional the Public Workshop can be lectured in the English or German language.

On-Site Weibull Reliability Engineering Workshops

3 Day Complete Workshop
The Standard Workshop includes treatment of the Fifth edition of The New Weibull Handbook©, and the latest version of the SuperSMITH™ software including two afternoons of hands-on computer tutorial (PlayTIME™) covering every type of problem and every option. The Workshop is designed to bring the novice to expert capability.

Topics include:

• • Failure analysis,
  • Optimal Parts replacement,
  • Cost analysis,
  • Failure prediction,
  • Warranty analysis,
  • Reliability system models,
  • Substantiation test design.

The 3 Day Complete Workshop include:

• • The New Weibull Handbook, 5th Edition,
  • The Playtime with SuperSMITH computer tutorial,
  • Personal license of the SuperSMITH™ Weibull and Visual software valued at Euro 960,- per student,
  • A graduation certificate for each student,

Extra students (>8) who sit-in the first or last day only, will receive the Handbook but not the software; the fee for these students is Euro 200,-

.

2 + 2 (4) Day Super Workshop (Follow up, Student Consulting, plus Reliability Growth and Testing)
The complete 3 day Workshop content plus a fourth day for additional focus on Reliability Growth tracking, Confidence Growth, Reliability Validation Planning, Field-test Set-up, Reliability Tools plus “Best Practice” introduction including a half day hands-on with the new Tools. On top of this some additional (real life based) cases with higher complexity and, last but not least, student presentations of their own real problem analysis completed in the workshop.

1/2 Day Management Overview
Following a 3 or (2+2) 4-day Weibull Workshop, a morning presentation to senior managers may be scheduled to provide an overview of the new technologies including application to their problems.

Evening Weibull Reliability Engineering Workshops

Fees: For Weibull Workshops in Europe

Examples:

Fees for evening classes are in line with the 3 and 4 day Workshops, but a discount of 20% is offered. Additional travel and living costs will be added, depending on the distance from Eindhoven to the Workshop site. The same material as in the 3 or 4 day Workshops is offered.

Additional information

All Workshop features include:

• • Introduction,
  • Video,
  • Lectures using case studies, Weibull experiments in low cycle fatigue and high cycle fatigue,
  • Class-work,
  • Hands-on computer tutorial,
  • Student analysis of their own data & problems,
  • Many questions & answer periods,
  • Oral quiz,
  • Graduation.

On-Site Workshop advantages:

• • Tailor the Workshops to your specific needs. We can use your data and problems in the special computer tutorial. We can add, delete or emphasise specific topics. The students are invited to bring their own problems to the Workshop.
  • The cost per student is far less than the fee for our Public Workshops as the Software and the Books are included in the On-Site Workshop price and there are no travel and/or hotel costs for the students.
  • The New Weibull Handbook is provided well in advance to allow the study before the Workshop.
  • If interest develops to have an On-Site Workshop at your facility, we will provide more specific details to facilitate this tailoring.

Fees for Weibull Workshops outside the Netherlands, but within Europe, increase the above fees to compensate for business class airfare and living expenses.

The fourth day is usually devoted to on Reliability Growth tracking, Confidence Growth, Reliability Validation Planning, Field-test Set-up and Reliability Tools, but Monte Carlo Simulation math modelling, may be combined with follow up presentations of student problems. A one-day refresher Workshop for experienced Weibull analysts may also be considered. The workshop provides an opportunity to brief your management with a special overview of all new technologies.

New Technology

Life data analysis is on the leading edge of technology with new and improved methods under continually development by many technicians and statistics. The Workshop is updated to include all the new methods.

Examples;

Availability

It is best to block in dates as soon as possible as the lecturers are usually obligated 6-10 months ahead.

Cancellation

There is no charge for cancelling up to 30 days before the Workshop.
Cancellation within 30 days of the Workshop will result in a fee of 10% of the fee for the scheduled number of days and students or Euro 2.000 if the number of students has not been scheduled.
All workshops are scheduled by Ronald Schop.

Facilities needed

Teacher: A lecture/workshop room, remote (radio) microphone if the group is larger than 12 persons, a flip chart and a PC overhead projector (beamer) with PowerPoint software, sound possibilities and projections screen.

Students: A personal computer or laptop with Windows for at least every 2 students on all but the first day. The student should sit at tables if possible. Students are encouraged to bring their own data for analysis during the workshop.
