Abstract

It is one of the major concerns of production industries to keep sustain quality products through maintenance of reliability goals which is capable of attaining to high demand of the competitive products in the societies. This is one of the motivations of using Weibull method to formulate a reliability model for grinding calcite and barite in production industries. The uniqueness of this work centers on the transformation of the Weibull cumulative function into a linear model which was used to check the level of reliability of the grinded chemicals using zenith grinding machines in manufacturing industries and to design the level of reliability suitable for further productions. These assumptions are in line with the linear transformation model following the aim of ascertaining efficiency of the grinding machines. The Weibull Cumulative distribution function was used to compare with a simple regression model to ascertain the parameter estimates which reflects the reliability levels of the production industries. When the Weibull transformation was compared to the linear model, the shape and scale parameters were estimated and used to establish the level of reliability. This research work described what happened at the various levels of production before felts started forming and developed a reliability model for the prevention of filth formation in grinding calcite and barite with zenith grinding machine in paper producing industries and other industries of similar products.
