Mastering Machine Health and Failure Prediction - The 5 Humors & Failure Progression: Teaching Through the Senses

Over the past year, and especially in the last four months, I’ve gone deep into machine theory. What emerged is our new course: Mastering Machine Health and Failure

Prediction - The 5 Humors.

In my 30 years in manufacturing as a Continuous Improvement leader and LSS Master Black Belt, I’ve applied countless methodologies: Lean, TPM, RCM, SMED, RCA, BDA, and more. Each has its place, but none surpass the impact of truly understanding the equipment itself and the way failure progression unfolds.

If a company wants to make a true, immediate impact on profits, the key is simple:

• Teach operators how to use their 5 senses for diagnostics.

• Train them in failure progression.

• Give them the framework of the 5 Humors of Machine Health.

  
  

When these three work together, no single methodology can match the results. The outcome isn’t just better maintenance, its predictable reliability, empowered operators, and stronger profits.
