Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it is mostly "behind the scenes," lubrication is used wherever you look--in all types of machines, vehicles, and aircrafts. Its usefulness is everywhere, in every industry, from all types of manufacturing, power, health, petrochemicals, food, paper, and metallurgy to small industries and agriculture. Lubrication is absolutely essential to the world. There is an undeniable link between maintenance strategy and lubrication reliability. Depending on the industry, maintenance costs can represent between 15-60% of the cost of goods produced. Therefore, the reliability of plant and equipment has a significant impact on the profits of any organization. Unfortunately, most problems related to machinery in plants are lubrication-related. To get maximum benefit from advanced maintenance strategies, an understanding of equipment lubrication is a must. That's why this work is invaluable. Machinery Lubrication and Reliability contains everything a maintenance, plant, or industrial professional needs to know about lubrication theory, with vital information on all the critical equipment lubrication requirements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In industry, owners, engineers and workers have struggled with lubricant degradation and its effects on their equipment. The purpose of Lubrication Degradation Mechanisms: A Complete Guide is to help personnel to understand the reasons behind the degradation of their lubricant, determine methods to identify the onset of degradation and reduce or eliminate lubricant degradation within their equipment. One of the most common forms of lubricant degradation is oxidation. However, this is not the only method by which a lubricant degrades. By understanding the differences between degradation patterns, personnel can employ specific tasks / tests to aid in their identification of the type of degradation and the factors responsible. The aim of this book is to educate facility personnel on the methods of degradation and ways in which it can be reduced or eliminated while keeping an eye on the cost of operation.
