MRO Spare Parts and Storeroom Management is one of the most neglected maintenance strategies in the majority of industries which should not be the case. While others say that this is the missing link to any reliability and maintenance strategy. The truth of the matter is that almost every type of industry, whether manufacturing, processing, pharmaceutical, power plants, mining, construction, aviation, oil, and gas, or others has a storeroom in place to store items and spare parts, but not all industries know how to manage and control them

The subject of lubrication is very broad indeed and is evolving continuously with new technologies and developments as time passed. As a result, some of the things that have been written and published are now bygone and obsolete. While most maintenance and lubrication people I know are not educated properly on lubrication. Most of their decision on which lubricant to use and when to change it is based most often on OEM recommendations. The purpose of writing this book on Lubrication Tactics for Industries Made Simple is to provide the maintenance people and lubricant users an easy-to-understand and straightforward approach to lubrication that they can adapt easily in their plant to reduce lubricant-related failures and reduce their maintenance costs.

Lubricants can also be said to be the lifeblood of the equipment. The costs of lubricants in the industry only tell us just one side of the story. The much higher cost can be seen in the number of breakdowns and failures encountered daily caused by incorrect practices and myths on lubrication. The costs of failures attributed to lubrication are a minimum of 2 folds the costs of lubricants that are consumed in the equipment. This means that if your industry is a heavy user of lubrication, such as in the mining industry, multiply this by a minimum of two and that would be the estimated cost of failures attributed to lubrication.

Some of the highlights that are covered in this book include the following

- Why There is No Lubrication Engineering Course in College?

- Is it possible to remove contaminants in the oil?

- Extended Oil Drain - Myth or Fact

- Does Oil Really Wear Out?

- Selecting the Correct Lubricating Oil for the Equipment

- Can We Mixed Different Grades and Brands of SAE Engine Oil?

- Grease Incompatibility Issue

- Advantages of Synthetic Oil over Petroleum Oil

- Frequently Asked Questions on Synthetic Oil

- Different Viscosity Grades for Industrial Lubricants

- Does Lubricating Oil Really Wear Out?

- Six Myths About Lubrication

- Ten Strategies to Adapt to Lubrication and Contamination Control

- Why is the Study of Tribology Important to Industries?

- Why Lubrication Failures Repeat Itself

- Benefits of Oil Analysis

- Why Does Oil Analysis Program Fail in Some Industries?

- Tips for Conducting Oil Analysis

- Lubrication Tactics on Lubricating Oil

- Lubrication Tactics on Oil Contamination Control(Code)

- Lubrication Tactics on Greasing

- Steps on Adopting a Lubrication Strategy

Contamination is the main problem with lubrication, and it has always been there in the equipment, and it comes not only in solid form but in liquid and air (bubbles). The author believes that the more contamination present in lubricating oil, then the more chances of failures to happen, not only in hydraulics but in all lubricating systems.

He has been invited to different countries and has conducted reliability and maintenance training in United Arab Emirates, Qatar, India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Thailand, Nigeria, Bangladesh, South Africa, China, and Botswana. His maintenance training portfolio includes maintenance and reliability courses on TPM, Lubrication, Tribology, Condition-Based Maintenance, RCM, RCFA, TPM Planned Maintenance, Autonomous Maintenance 7 Steps, World Class Maintenance Management, The 12 Disciplines, Oil Contamination Control, Maintenance Indices, and KPI's, Maintenance and Reliability Management Strategies and much more. Rolly previously worked with Amkor Technology Philippines as a TPM Senior Engineer, an industry engaged in manufacturing Integrated Circuit products and spearheaded their Planned Maintenance organization, composed of maintenance managers and engineers. He was also responsible for dramatically reducing unplanned breakdowns in their TPM Journey and RCM implementation on their Facilities AHU units and substation equipment. Rolly is currently working as an independent reliability and maintenance consultant. Rolly is a graduate of Mechanical Engineering from Mapua Institute of Technology in the Philippines, batch 1985, and passed the licensure board examination the following year in 1986. With 30 years of solid experience, he had worked in various industries from shipping, woodworking, foundry, cast-iron machining, assembly lines, semiconductor manufacturing, and the mining industry. Here, he gained hands-on experience and understanding of TPM and RCM, respectively, a strategy from both the west and the east. His last corporate employment was in 2002, where he worked as a technical training specialist at Lepanto Consolidated Mining Industry. In 2005, Rolly retired early from the industry and decided to establish his own consulting business, RSA Reliability and Maintenance Consultancy Firm, where he dedicates his time and passion for working as an independent reliability and maintenance consultant. He provides inhouse training, consultation, and facilitation to different maintenance and reliability best practices.

Reviews for Lubrication Tactics for Industries Made Easy: 8th Discipline on World Class Maintenance Management

After reading your book on lubrication - I've initiated a oil contamination control project (offline filtration and bypass) and I've just got buy in for the trial. I'm evolving that to all lubricants/liquids in trains and plant equipment. All I can say your books are irreplaceable wealth of knowledge that are so simplified for even non technical person can understand! From Kristijan Apostolski Gaining of idea and information on how to selects and classification of different types of additives and lube oil types. We learned the importance of efficiency table, acceptable reading, normal parameters of lube oil, and testing equipment to monitor and analyze the lube oil conditioning. From George Domingo dela Torre, Supervisor, DMCI Palawan The knowledge about lubrication and how to select the proper and right lubrication for our equipment and the proper planning of strategy on lubrication of each equipment in the plant. Different classification of lubricants and grease and the additives added on it. From Kelvin Sampaton, Warehouse Assistant, DMCI Palawan Very useful guidelines are learned from the training. By knowing the importance of oil, we need to improve the methods of oil handling in our industry. We learned about the factors for oil contamination and the result if oil contamination in the equipment. I learned to improve the quality of oil used in industries and equipment and save costs in lube oil. From Veenil Kumar, Engineer, Chemical Plant, India Covers overall maintenance strategies concerning lubrication. Understand lubrication, contamination, and other lubrication related maintenance. Do's and don'ts on oil and prevention of Oil Contamination. From Shiv Yadav, India Excellent inputs on lubrication strategies. Detailed coverage on lubrication basics, grease basics, application section, contamination control, and oil analysis. Practical good discussion on practical problems. Inputs on various levels of the oil analysis program and its importance. From Rajiv Deshmukh, Vice President, Engineering Aditya Birla, India A better understanding of lubrication management regarding determining the lubricant condition and its necessary analysis can be done. It is a good way to change the normal norm of maintenance perception that gives priority to Preventive Maintenance only. The better and proactive way is predictive maintenance, based on its condition and not on scheduled maintenance. From Mohamad Azman Bin Drahman, Bintulu Port, Malaysia I learned about the properties of the oil. Equipment life will prolong with clean oil since contaminated oil can make the equipment fail. We learned about proper storage of oil lubricants to ensure clean and safe to use. Good filtration will definitely result from cleaning oil. From Jeremias Ocio, Area Manager, Conveyor, Mechanical Maintenance
