Lubrication Excellence Training
Course Length 1 Day

 This is not just another program to tell you how much and how often!


Lubrication Excellence Training is a must for any manufacturing process. This program teaches how lubrication of equipment is one of the most important functions in any plant maintenance process. It is important because we want our equipment to operate in very long cycles without failing. Lubricating oils and greases have over 40 failure modes that we have control over. Storage, filtration, handling, temperature, and moisture are just a few that will be covered. Lubrication Excellence training will guide you in the steps needed change your program and put you on the path for extending equipment life by 3 to 8 times what you are presently experiencing.

In the manufacturing world many failures happen to our process equipment. Most we have control over and very few just happen. We often say, "Well that piece of equipment just wore out". Is this a true statement?

The mission of this training is to show you methods and processes to help you keep your equipment operating much longer. Lack of knowledge on lubrication causes 50% of all equipment failures and shortens the life of our equipment by another 50%. Depending on the type of process conditions your plant operates under equipment life can be extended 3 to 8 times. Over and under greasing is just a small piece of this problem.

Learn how to use Oil Analysis to determine when and how your equipment will fail. Learn how to know if your lubricants are failing due to oxidation and depletion of additives to make your equipment last longer. What are these additives and how do they work? You’ll learn at this session.

Lubrication Excellence training program will guide your organization in the right direction to educate and improve your methods to make the right decisions. This is not just another program to tell you when and how to lubricate equipment!
Benefits of this course
