A: The kidney-loop system on our blank-
washing units has been one of the biggest
successes I have been a part of. We have
been able to reduce scrap and outer-skin
rejects by a large amount by having cleaner
oil on the parts during the stamping
process. We were also able to reduce down-
time and our rework costs as well.
Q: How does your company view
machinery lubrication in terms of
importance and overall business
strategy?
A: The supervisors and upper management
have taken a long look at lubrication after
seeing the results from the positive changes
we have made. The reduction in downtime
and cost savings have been a great
eye-opener for a lot of people. Our
managers and maintenance director
provide great support in our lubrication
management program.
Q:
What do you see as some of the
more important trends taking place in
the lubrication and oil analysis field?
A: One of the biggest trends I see is the
changing mindset of people, from lube techs
and supervisors to upper management. It is
important to show them that there is more
to it than "grease is grease, and oil is oil."
There is a specific reason why we use the
type of grease or oil that we use.
