  Lubricant is the blood of the equipment !!! It provides frictionless operation and longevity to the Equipment. The use of the right lubricant saves equipment from wear and tear and minimizes maintenance and repair costs.  Taking care of lubricants and maintaining these properties are an essential part of maintenance activity. Condition monitoring and timely filtration ensure contamination-free Oil, flawless operation, and rare incidents of a mechanical breakdown. Inventory management & identification plays a vital role in machinery and plant maintenance. To know more about the importance of inventory management, click here . CHALLENGES OF LUBRICANT!! Lubricants face many challenges in providing lubrication to mechanical equipment, depending on the environment they operate in. Temperature Fluctuations, Heat, Heavy Load, Entrained Air, etc. are some of the challenges faced by Lubricants. These challenges invite different types of contaminations which redu...

 Lubricants can not be re-used, can they? Lubricants can not be re-used and should be replaced is a Myth. Well, the fact is with today’s advanced technology and lubrication reliability practices, reusing lubricants saves a large amount of money that is spent on replacing them. With the right lubricants reconditioning practices used for different contamination challenges, Lubricants are made fit and as good as new for the Equipment. Now, let us understand why Oil Analysis should be performed on a regular basis. Oil Analysis is often skipped or performed in an unscheduled manner which affects the machine's performance and life. Challenges related to lubricants which one can easily avoid with scheduled analysis gets worse  because of poor oil analysis practices Below are some reasons Why scheduled Oil Analysis is Important: 1) Keeping a check on the lubricant's condition. 2) Knowing What type and How much Contaminants are present, makes reclamation easier. 3) Health...

  Why is keeping a check on Lubricant so important in Rolling Mills? Hot Strip Mill, Cold Rolling Mill, Primary Boom Bar Mill, Bar, and Wire Rod Mill and Merchant Mill are parts of the rolling and finishing group. The equipment is subjected to high impact loads, water and scale ingress, high temperature near reheating furnaces, and higher speed and unit loads in the rolling and finishing group. This has a negative impact on Lubricant and makes them unfit for the equipment. Keeping a regular check on Oil's condition and Purifying it when necessary becomes really important to avoid mechanical breakdown and to control maintenance cost. Minimac System has been promoting Lubrication Reliability practices which have helped Steel plants across India to overcome untimely breakdowns and save a large amount spent on maintenance. A Steam turbine blower was to be commissioned in one of the topmost steel plants in Odisha, India by a leading EPC company, the pipelines were erec...

  Precaution Is Better Than Cure! In the Lubrication field, Contaminants are the bad elements that need to be prevented and removed as when detected. Neglecting the need for Purifications often leads to Premature Failure and Mechanical Breakdowns. This shoots up the cost of maintenance and repair of Equipment. While comparing, the Cost of Filtration is approximately 1/10th of the Cost of Repairs. Purification not only turns Lubricant fit for Re-Use but also saves a large portion spent on Maintenance and Repair of Equipment. Lubrication Reliability practices are essential for smooth and uninterrupted Operation and Production.  Join our Network and Connect with Our Experts Today: Click here Contamination in Lubricants is a Bane for Equipment !!
