ABOUT INDUSTRIAL LUBRICATION AND TRIBOLOGY

The science of industrial machinery lubrication, friction and wear and tear has only recently begun to acquire the status it deserves - yet a grasp of tribology-that is, understanding which lubricants work best in which types of machinery-can have far-reaching effects in areas such as costs, productivity and quality. At anyone time, up to 50% of machinery is at a stand still due to problems related to friction - and when it"s your organization bearing the costs of that downtime, you need to know what you can do to reduce such huge potential losses. ■Abrasion resistant materials ■Condition monitoring ■Dynamic seals ■Lubricant additives ■Oil refining ■Subsequent lubricants
