Gearboxes have a tendency to be installed and left to run until oil is leaking excessively or until the unit starts to make weird noises.
Our Reliability Team has the ability to perform Reliability Asset Review of your critical gear units. The following are a few items that will be reviewed:
- Manufacturer’s print, laying out parts with part numbers
- Type of breather and changing intervals
- Oil analysis and type of oil used
- Greasing of seals and other greaseable bearings, if applicable
- Visual internal inspection of unit
- Vibration readings
- Motor loading and performance
- Coupling types and maintenance practices
- Alignment/soft-foot checks Storage procedures
Gearboxes with the appropriate care and maintenance can give your company many years of satisfactory performance.
