چکیده
The essential customer needs of today, namely long bearing service life and low noise performance, demand the availability of a means to verify that the required cleanliness level and lubrication conditions are fulfilled. To fulfil these needs, a new equipment, the SKF BEQUIET+ tester has been developed to assess the quality of the lubricant with regard to cleanliness and damping characteristics. The test rig is recommended for application by lubricant manufacturers as a tool for their lubricant development as well as for production control, by bearing producers as a means to select the best lubricant on the market and for incoming batch control and by end-users to verify the lubrication quality in service.

Eco-Friendly Multipurpose Lubricating Greases from Vegetable Residual Oils
Environmentally friendly multipurpose grease formulation has been synthesized by using Jatropha vegetable residual oil with lithium soap and multifunctional additive. The thus obtained formulation was evaluated for its tribological performance on a four-ball tribo-tester. The anti-friction and anti-wear performance characteristics were evaluated using standard test methods. The biodegradability...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Grease Film Characteristics in Tapered Roller Bearing Subject to Shaft Deflection
The shaft deflection is one of critical factors that deteriorate the grease lubrication state inside the tapered roller bearings (TRBs). So, in this paper, on the premise of the TRB subjected to the combined loads and the shaft is deflected, the grease lubrication model at the TRB contacts was constructed, in which the interaction loads, linear and angular displacements of the bearing parts wer...

متن کاملGrease Degradation in R0F Bearing Tests
This paper is the second in a series that examines grease lubrication mechanisms and failure in rolling element bearings. The aim of the work was to understand the grease condition changes during use and the relationship to lubrication performance and failure. R0F bearing tests were carried out with two lithium hydroxystearate greases and the effects of the temperature, the speed, and the addit...
