Audience

    • Engineers and technical staff working in the development, manufacturing, technical assistance and sales of lubricants, in engineering offices of automotive and mechanical industry, in maintenances services, desiring to acquiring a basic knowledge on the principles of lubrication and on lubricants.

Level

  • Advanced
  • This course is an overview on lubricants, their functional properties and their impact on the functioning of the machines and provides a deeper knowledge on basic mechanical organs, their integration in the various automotive and industrial equipment and their principles of functioning.
Learning Objectives
  • Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
  • know the different basic organs of the mechanic and the principles of their lubrication,
  • understand the importance of lubricants standardization (classifications and specifications),
  • understand the whole mechanisms involved in the lubrication of automotive and industrial equipment: friction, lubrication, forms of wear,
  • know the chemical composition of lubricants (base oils and additives),
  • understand the mode of action of lubricants and the relationship between the chemical composition and the required functional properties for the various applications,
  • know the different methods for evaluating the physicochemical and mechanical properties.
