IRMC - Iris Rotating Machine Conference

The 27th Iris Rotating Machine Conference in Nashville from June 23 to 26, 2025.

The Iris Rotating Machine Conference is a technical conference held annually, 2025 will be our 27th year. This conference is dedicated to bringing together subject matter experts from around the world to discuss the predictive maintenance technologies and to educate attendees on the practical aspects of implementing condition-based maintenance for motors and generators. Presenters will have the opportunity to share their experiences with recent failures, repair methods, testing and monitoring.

Hope to see you in June!

Preliminary Agenda

Monday June 23 - Courses (May select 1 on each day as 2 courses run in parallel)


Partial Discharge Theory & Interpretation - $325.00 Partial discharge phenomena and their causes in stator windings • PD theory, PD detection, sensor installation, and calibration procedures • Collection of off-line and on-line PD data • PD characteristics of stator-failure mechanisms • Case studies from continuous monitoring equipment and portable instruments


Common Motor Failure Mechanisms and Operational Challenges – $325.00 This tutorial will give an overview of common failure mechanisms that affect industrial motors including VFD driven motors. The tutorial will discuss electrical and mechanical failure mechanisms and problems

Thursday June 26 - Courses


Condition Based Maintenance of Turbo-Generators - $325.00This tutorial will cover basic design of turbogenerator, major core, stator and rotor winding failure mechanisms. Principles and benefits of most frequently used on-line monitors, such as partial discharge, end winding vibration, rotor flux and shaft voltage and current, will be explained.


Advanced Partial Discharge Interpretation - $325.00The course takes the theory of PD one step further to account for Phase Resolved PD (PRPD) patterns found in practice. How to identify the root cause of stator winding PD based on PRPD. The effect of machine operation on PD is also covered, as are the limitations of the PD interpretation.
