Efficient lubricant management for greater safety and economy
Effective lubricant management is key to increasing operational reliability and reducing total cost of ownership (TCO). The correct selection, application and optimal management of lubricants are often underestimated – yet they offer great potential for cost reduction and process optimisation.
Why is lubricant management so important?
Lubricants often work behind the scenes: once they have been added to the system, they quickly disappear from view. It is only when problems arise that many operators realise how crucial the quality and correct use of lubricants are for trouble-free operation. Errors in lubricant use lead to considerable follow-up costs, which can exceed the actual lubricant costs many times over.
In our practical seminar, you will learn how to optimise your lubricant use and adapt it to the individual requirements of your production facilities. Proven methods such as simplifying varieties, lubrication schedules and labelling systems enable you to make your maintenance processes more efficient and sustainable.
