Problems with bearings and possible solutions
Vibration analysis
Make repeatable, severity-scaled readings of overall vibration and bearing condition before a failure occurs with this portable vibration tester.

Test for hot spots
Monitor areas you suspect of wearing to see how bad it is using thermal imaging; then you can intervene when it's necessary.

Conveyor misalignment
Poorly aligned drive belts or pulleys can significantly contribute to noise, vibration and wear leading to premature bearing failure and costly machine downtime. Avoid this by using a laser guided belt alignment tool.

Loose belts
Loose or poorly tensioned drive or timing belts can cause premature failures; check tension with a digital acoustic tension tester.

Which grease should I use?
Mixing greases can cause problems, with the different components reacting with each other; read our handy guide to ensure you use the right grease for your application.

Problems with vibration and possible solutions
Too much vibration
Vibration can accelerate wear and cause failures; fitting anti-vibration mounts can help dampen vibrations increasing uptime.

Problems with pneumatics and possible solutions
Bring down the pressure
Reducing air pressure can save energy - and therefore cost - and extend component life. Fit additional pressure regulators to allow on-machine adjustment for optimum performance.
Leaks in air supplies
Air leaks in pneumatic systems can account for 20% of the systems energy cost and cause unforeseen breakdowns - check for air leaks regularly with leak detection spray and fix any you find.

Pneumatic air quality
Poor quality, contaminated or under-lubricated air can drastically reduce the operational life of pneumatic actuators. Filter and lubricate air systems correctly to maximise component life.
Ultrasonic leak detection
Find air leaks using ultrasonics, which can also work on unpressurized or low pressure systems where the leak can be harder to find.
