Tata Power’s Jojobera Division organised Roto Care 2014, a workshop on rotary equipment maintenance and overhaul at Golmuri Club, Jamshedpur.
The objective of this initiative was to encourage knowledge sharing and educate employees on latest trends, design improvements and good practices through ingenious presentations on topics such as fans, air compressors, pumps, rotary air preheater, seal, coupling etc. Tata Power organised interactive sessions and case studies which also gave an insight into the analysis and predictive maintenance carried out by other companies.
