In every production environment, they run in the background: motors, pumps, conveyor systems, and fans — and within them, countless rolling and plain bearings that form the backbone of every installation. Only when these components are continuously and precisely lubricated does the production flow remain smooth. Manual re-lubrication takes time, is often imprecise, and c...

Lubrication is not a secondary topic in maintenance. It is one of the most effective levers for the service life, availability, and energy efficiency of machines — and at the same time one of the most frequently underestimated. Between two wearing surfaces, a stable lubricating film determines whether metal slides cleanly on an oil or grease film, or whether micro-weldin...

In the pulp and paper industry, continuity is not an option. It is a prerequisite. Production lines often run around the clock, under heat, moisture, and high mechanical loads. At the same time, energy prices are rising, environmental regulations are tightening, and competition leaves less room for avoidable losses. One central yet frequently underestimated weak point is...

In practice, it is rarely the bearing itself that determines whether a machine runs reliably or fails prematurely. It is the lubrication. The majority of all bearing damage can be traced back to unsuitable or incorrectly applied lubrication. Wrong lubricant, wrong quantity, intervals that are too long, or contamination that has entered the system. The most common causes ...
