Industrial lubrication is the use of oil, grease, or special fluids to reduce friction, control heat, and prevent wear in machinery and equipment. It is a critical application for the efficient and long-lasting operation of industrial systems.
1. Purposes
- To reduce friction and prevent energy loss
- To reduce wear and surface deformation
- To provide heat control and heat dissipation
- To prevent corrosion and rusting
- To extend the life of mechanical parts
2. Types of lubrication
- Liquid lubrication: Mineral, synthetic, or semi-synthetic oils
- Greasing: Used in bearings, journals, and gears with base oil + thickener + additives
- Solid lubrication: Solids like graphite or molybdenum disulfide, used in extreme heat or high load
3. Application areas
- Bearings, journals, gears, chains
- Pumps and motors
- Industrial machinery and production lines
- Heavy load and high-temperature applications
4. Selection criteria
- Operating temperature and speed
- Load and pressure
- Environmental influences (water, dust, chemicals)
- Type of mechanical system and maintenance intervals
