Who should attend?

Audience

- Engineers and technical staff concerned by the development, manufacture, recommendations and use of greases in automotive and industrial organs susceptible to be lubricated with this type of lubricant.
- Engineers and technical staff of the automotive and mechanical industry.

Level

Advanced

This course provides an overview of the antifriction bearings technologies in automotive and industrial transmissions.
To provide basic knowledge on greases: description, composition, production, testing methods, lubrication mechanism, classifications and specifications and various properties.
To study more particularly the lubrication of bearings with grease, the criteria for the choice of a grease according to the operating conditions.
To learn how to identify the failure causes of bearings.
To study the lubrication of automotive and industrial transmissions with grease.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
understand the main points on grease: structure, properties, production modes, testing methods and performance characterization, different types of greases and criteria for the choice according to the applications,
know the applications of grease other than bearings (gears, automotive and industrial transmissions, couplings),
recommend a bearing grease according to the operating conditions and to calculate the lubrication intervals and the life time,
recognize the bearing failures and identify the origins.
