Course Overview
This Zoe course will present and introduce different backgrounds to basics of Tribology of gears and gearboxes, bearings, and lubrications. The course will offer the participants the knowledge required to properly maintain, service, inspect, select and repair a variety of industrial gearboxes.
How do you lubricate bearings? Bearing is often one of the major challenge for every maintenance engineer. Participants will get a robust technical and practical understanding of the lubrication systems of different equipment. This Bearing Lubrication and Vibration Analysis course will specifically lay emphasis on the working principle of bearings, types, application of each type, and the maintenance of bearings.
This Zoe course will cover every aspect and characteristic of bearing selection, maintenance including lubrication systems, function of lubrication, and lubrication system components. The course also offers experiential learning in the gear boxes working principle and component maintenance & repair.
Course Objectives
Upon completing this Bearing Lubrication and Vibration Analysis course successfully, participants will be able to:
- Identify and recognise different bearing components including plain bearing, ball or roller bearings, cage assembly and others
- Classification, categorisation and the components of each type (design of each type)
- Identify shaft and housing fits of bearings
- Conduct and manage failure analysis, condition monitoring and proper handling to preserve bearing life
- Demonstrate proper precision alignment, mounting and dismounting procedures
- Estimate bearing life and find the causes of immediate bearing failures
Training Methodology
This interactive training course will consist of the following training mechanisms:
- Lectures
- Seminars & Presentations
- Group Discussions
- Assignments
- Videos & General Discussions
- Case Studies & Functional Exercises
ZTS follows the ‘Do-Review-Learn-Apply’ model.
