Grease Analysis
Grease Analysis: Proactive Maintenance for Critical Equipment
Overview
Grease analysis is a powerful tool for identifying potential failures in mechanical components that rely on lubrication. Whether you're dealing with slow-moving trunnions or high-speed motor bearings, grease analysis helps uncover issues before they escalate into costly problems. By analyzing the grease within your components, we can detect early signs of wear and failure, allowing you to take action before a breakdown occurs.
Prevent Unplanned Downtime
If you're operating critical equipment such as bearings, u-joints, or trunions, you know how devastating a failure can be. These components play a vital role in keeping your operations running smoothly. A failure in any of them can lead to unexpected downtime, costly repairs, and even production halts. Grease analysis helps you detect potential failures well in advance, reducing the risk of unplanned shutdowns and maximizing the lifespan of your equipment.
How Grease Analysis Works
Grease analysis involves sampling and testing the grease from key components in your machinery. Through this process, we can determine if there are abnormal wear particles, contaminants, or signs of excessive friction. By analyzing these results, we can pinpoint the root causes of potential failures and suggest corrective actions.
Develop a Complete Monitoring Program
If your operation depends on the reliability of critical components, such as bearings and trunions, we can work with you to develop a comprehensive grease analysis program tailored to your specific needs. Our goal is to help you predict failures as far out as possible, allowing you to schedule repairs and maintenance at your convenience, avoiding unexpected downtime and ensuring that your operations continue smoothly.
Why Choose Grease Analysis?
Early Detection of Issues: Spot problems before they become critical, saving time and money.
Optimized Maintenance: Plan repairs and replacements based on data, not guesswork.
Increased Equipment Lifespan: Regular grease analysis helps prolong the life of your machinery.
Reduced Downtime: Predict and prevent unexpected failures, keeping your operations running efficiently.
Detect Failures Vibration Misses: Slow speed components are hard to diagnose with vibration analysis but can be detected by trending wear metals in grease.
