Lubrication Surveys

Lubrication Basic Assessment Service

To assess your lubrication management maturity, we’ll perform a plant walk to create a report detailing what you are doing well and what we may be able to help you do better, providing a simple look at where you are and where you could be.

We can pick up where you have left off.

If your manpower is stretched to its fullest, we can enable you to free up your maintenance personnel to carry out direct maintenance, whilst we get on with stabilising the existing lubrication plan. We act as an extension to your current workforce, and continually advise you of any issues so you can make management decisions depending upon the criticality to your business needs.

We can carry out a full lubrication survey on site.

Using Vibration Analysis and Ultrasound technologies, we can pick up where you have already started. However, we can also help you create a continuous improvement program where we can slowly start to make improvements.

We will recommend improvements based on condition, making sure that stores are effective and the best that they can be. We will implement improvements at a gradual pace to easily integrate into your daily operations.

We’re committed to getting the job done right the first time. As part of this, we will provide you with the right personnel to drive the optimisation to completion in an efficient and timely manner. And, we’ll run lubrication activities that are based upon the needs of the asset and your business objectives.

We can start from the beginning.

We will do a full and expert lubrication study incorporating complementary technologies, such as oil and Vibration Analysis and Ultrasound technologies. With this, we’ll create a continuous improvement program that we can implement and use.
