February 18, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Hutchinson, KS - Ken Peoples, Plant Reliability Systems Analyst at Boeing IDS in Wichita, KS, has tapped the expertise of Peterson Predictive Maintenance to train personnel at Boeing IDS facilities in predictive maintenance. Peterson Predictive Maintenance staff will spend March 19 through 23 at Boeing IDS working with them to set up ultrasound bearing routes as well as ultrasound leak detection routes. They will also be giving instruction on the UE Systems Ultraprobe 10000.

The infrared thermography group at the IDS Complex will also be given assistance conducting a complete infrared thermography survey of all electrical equipment in every building. They will be using Peterson Predictive Maintenance’s infrared cameras, as well as training the Boeing group how to use their own.

“Some of the equipment that is on site includes air compressors as big as a small house, along with many precision CNC machines used to make parts,” said Chuck Peterson, owner of Peterson Predictive Maintenance. “This program will be on the leading edge of a large scale cost savings program that Boeing is in the process of implementing within the plant.”

Ken Peoples has been guest speaker at world class conferences across the globe, and is well known around the world for his advanced way of thinking and for staying ahead of the curve.

“We feel very privileged to be mentioned in the same circle as Ken and we are honored to be of service to this fine very large scale facility,” said Chuck Peterson.
