Noria Corporation

If improving reliability or lowering maintenance costs is your goal, it pays to look at your lubricants and lubrication practices carefully and holistically. Are lubrication staff properly trained? Are lubricants kept clean enough? Are oil change or regrease intervals set properly? Are recent machine failures related to lubrication?

Answering these questions (and more) is the beginning of Lubrication Program Development (LPD). Noria experts use this holistic, three-phase process to help customers identify gaps in their lubrication programs and make a prioritized plan for improvements.

Some lubrication challenges do not have a “one-size-fits-all” solution and require a more customized approach to solve. Our consultants aim to identify the root cause of bearing failure, wear, contamination and more, rather than providing a “band-aid” solution or quick fix. Once a root cause is determined, we help you develop a comprehensive plan to resolve the issue and maintain system continuity.

Some applications require more care or diligence to make sure the proper lubricant is selected. This may require a different base oil, additives, viscosity, or blend of multiple parameters. With specialized equipment and unique stresses, matching the correct lubricant can be difficult. This is where Noria can make it much easier for you.
