Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to provide information on wear debris on oil and vibration analysis as predictive maintenance techniques.

Design/methodology/approach

The estate of a reducer is verified by analyzing the vibration and oil conditions of a test rig under some variables.

Findings

According to the vibration and oil analysis it was found what was happening in the reducer without disassembling it.

Originality/value

This paper gives information about two predictive maintenance techniques with a test rig.
