Readers Challenge

Selecting Machines for Oil Analysis

On July 16, 2003 we asked:

"You have just been hired as the reliability engineer for a manufacturing plant. The plant has more than 4,000 pieces of rotating equipment. How would you go about selecting which components require routine oil analysis, and how would you select the correct series of oil analysis tests for these systems?"

Thanks to everyone that participated in this Readers Challenge. We received a LOT of responses. Below is this week's winner and some of the other responses that we received.
