Abstract:

This research paper focuses the actual situation of coal handling plant for failure of belt structure and analyse the technicalcharacteristicswith probable reasons for prevention and elimination.So that it is very important to find out the root causesamong the probable causes. At last after finding out the root causes, we proceed the solutions. In this paper analysis the cause of failures with root causes and their proper solutions for reduction of cost and availability of equipment.

Keywords:

Fishbone diagram, Pareto analysis, Cost feasibility.
