Lubrication Excellence Audit

Most plants and manufacturing operations have a lubrication program. But very few understand what lubrication excellence programs really are. Understanding all the fundamentals of the excellence program will move any operation to longer equipment life cycles. Did you know that new lubricants are dirty and that there are no petroleum grease manufacturers in the US filtering the oil to low micron levels before making the greases? The excellence program starts with the ordering of the lubes and takes the plant all the way through receiving, storing, handling, and caring for the lubes in the equipment operation.

The lubrication excellence audit is used to help a plant understand where they stand on there lubrication practices. The audit has 20 areas the plant will be rated, each area is rated on a 0-10 scale. Each area of the audit has 5-8 questions to gain an understanding of the plants knowledge and practices. Many operations rate very low and this correlates to short bearing and gear life along with undesirable downtime.

The score in each area of the lubrication audit will help guide your plant in the training and procedures that are needed to start extending equipment life immediately. The audit alone without even the lubrication excellence training is a learning experience in itself. Reliable Process Solutions goal in every training program or audit is to provide an unmatched learning experience.
