Rotary Baker
Why we were called:
To evaluate and improve an open gear drive lubricated with NLGI 1 grease through automatic system.
What we saw (pre-conversion):
Extreme amounts of used lubricant build-up around gear, major wear on pinion and bull gear.
How we helped (post-conversion):
We plated open-gear lubricant on gear surfaces, and improved contact area on working surfaces.
