One of the best ways to care for machine assets is to ensure that the lubricants protecting them are clean, healthy, and ready to perform before they are put into service in our machines. It is common for oil analysis to be used to monitor the condition of in-service lubricants, but fewer organizations take a close look at "new" lubricant shipments to determine whether they meet standards for cleanliness or other properties.

There are many factors that influence the decision of when to change oil. Because the decision to schedule oil changes must take into consideration a number of factors, we've developed a tool to guide you. It is a systematic approach to making a maintenance and reliability optimization decision with respect to interval-based vs. condition-based oil changes.

Poor lubrication practices may be to blame! Without a structured lubrication program, your machinery is prone to problems. Building a lubrication program doesn't happen overnight, but there is a way to fast track success.

New machinery is sometimes subjected to a break-in process. While there is considerable debate about if and how this should be done, one important consideration is the type of break-in fluid to use. This video explains how certain break-in fluids can reduce wear and help make the machine more efficient.

Lube Tip

If you are experiencing premature anti-friction bearing failures, you should not only look at your lubrication practices but also your installation practices. When inducting bearing heaters are used, the inner race heats faster than the outer race. This causes a thermal differential between the inner and outer race of the bearing, which will reduce the bearing's internal clearance. If this differential is allowed to climb high enough, all internal clearance in the bearing can be eliminated and dmage to the balls and races can occur.
