Types of Lubrication Systems
Lubricants and Friction Lubricants act to reduce friction. Now, this makes it easier to keep machines running smoothly, and it cuts down on the amount of heat and wears caused by friction. A machine’s moving […]

Hydraulic fluids are used for power transmission in hydraulic machinery. Hydraulic machines use fluid’s ability to perform work. So, here is some example of equipment where usually hydraulic fluids are used like excavators and backhoe Loaders, […]
Formulation The main use of lubricants in motor vehicles as well as in industrial machinery is to reduce friction and wear from mechanical contact and heat. Friction is the force that opposes movement on two […]
Different Lubricant Testing Procedures & Its Importance Have you ever visited a doctor & doctor asks you to have a blood test done? Doctors do that usually because blood tests can tell a lot more […]
Lubrication of rolling bearings is one of the main tasks that deserve our attention. By maintaining proper lubrication procedures & the right quantity of lubricants, Reliability, Longevity & Energy Optimization goals can be achieved. But […]
What is Pour Point? The pour point is the lowest temperature at which oil flows in a specified lab test. Specifically, the pour point is 3℃ (5℉) above the temperature at which the oil shows […]
What is a Journal Bearing? Journal Bearing is one of the most common and the simplest type of bearings and is a type of plain bearing. Essentially, a journal bearing is a shaft that rotates […]
What is lubricant viscosity? Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow. When a fluid is flowing, the molecules comprising it experience friction due to the molecular interaction among them. It means that different […]
Rolling element bearings are a widely used machine elements and they are used to allow rotation of or around shafts in many different machines, such as bicycle, cars, electric motors, aircraft turbines, mills, etc. The main […]
Reynolds equation is a partial differential equation that describes the flow of a fluid (typically lubricant) in the elastohydrodynamic or hydrodynamic contact. It is one of the main equations in the elastohydrodynamic (and hydrodynamic) theory […]
