A machine rarely fails without warning — the signs are usually there long before the breakdown, if you know where to look. This Training Course from the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy focuses on giving technicians and supervisors the practical techniques and equipment know-how needed to catch faults early, diagnose them accurately, and carry out repairs that meet quality standards.

Maintenance here is treated as more than fixing what's broken: it's about keeping equipment running as required for the longest possible time, whether through preventive, corrective, or routine maintenance. Participants build the principles and fundamentals needed for a complete, integrated repair process that saves the company time, effort, and cost.

Who Should Attend?

• Supervisors of industrial machinery.
• Technicians applying machinery repair systems.
