Efficient lubrication and oil monitoring – the key to the longevity of construction machinery

Construction machinery is indispensable for all kinds of construction projects, but its reliability depends largely on proper lubrication and oil monitoring. In our seminar, you will learn the basics of lubrication technology, the targeted use of various lubricants and the importance of modern oil monitoring systems.

This will increase the service life of your machines, enable you to detect wear at an early stage and avoid costly breakdowns. Particularly in harsh construction site environments, sound knowledge and professional maintenance are crucial to ensuring the long-term availability and efficiency of your construction machinery.

  • Teaching the fundamentals of lubrication technology and lubrication
  • Understanding the specific requirements of various construction machinery components
  • Knowledge of organic oils and synthetic oils and their areas of application
  • Learning professional oil monitoring for early fault detection
  • Increased machine reliability and availability through optimised maintenance
  • Avoiding typical practical problems when handling lubricants
  • Specialists and managers from the maintenance and repair of construction machinery
  • Technical advisors and sales representatives from lubricant and component manufacturers
  • Specialists and managers from the service sector relating to construction machinery maintenance
Seminar (2 days)
