Increase equipment reliability with proper lubricant analysis.
Gearboxes are interconnected with other internal and external components of the machinery. A defective gearbox can reduce operating times or stop production entirely. Gearbox and transmission failures have a very high cost to repair, making proactive monitoring essential for any industrial operation.
Because gearboxes are constantly exposed to friction and heat, fluid properties break down over time under stress, solid contaminants, moisture, and high temperatures. If problems are detected early, maintenance costs are reduced, lubricant life is extended, and equipment lifespan increases significantly.
Benefits of fluid analysis in gearboxes
- Detect early wear in gears, shafts, and bearings through wear metals
- Monitor solid contamination with ISO 4406 particle count
- Control oil viscosity to ensure proper film formation in gear contacts
- Identify water contamination that accelerates corrosion and wear
- Extend lubricant and equipment life with real monitoring data
- Provide maintenance department with actionable guidance
