Construction is among the most demanding industries when it comes to equipment wear and tear. To ensure all parts of a system are running smoothly, equipment maintenance teams need to select the right machinery lubrication. This has enormous impacts on performance levels and profitability in the construction industry. To help you better understand the importance of lubrication in such a specific industry, we have created our Ultimate Guide for Lubrication in Construction.
The construction sector plays a fundamental role in the European economy. To stay ahead of competitors in this hyper-competitive sector, construction and earthworks companies are dedicated to innovating their operations and increasing heavy-duty machinery efficiency. And, lubricant selection and maintenance play a fundamental role in the process. Why is construction lubrication important? How to choose the right products? Let’s find out!
Hydraulic systems, used in various industries (manufacturing, construction, robotics, agriculture, mining, aircraft, etc.) play a fundamental role in working settings that require a high-power density or where load demands change fast. In hydraulic systems, the pressurized fluid creates energy. These fluids are called hydraulic oils or hydraulic fluids and are essential for their spotless performance. So, what are hydraulic oils, and how to choose the right one? Let’s learn!
Hydraulic equipment maintenance can be fraught with pitfalls. An average hydraulic user is often unaware of certain errors and omissions that can endanger the success of hydraulic operations. This article will provide you with greater insight into hydraulic equipment usage and lubrication and help avoid common mistakes when maintaining hydraulic equipment. Let's dive in!
Using poor-quality or inadequate hydraulic fluids may shorten the service life of your heavy-duty industrial machinery. It results in frequent machine failures, causes costly repairs, and increases downtime. That is why it is critical to choose high-quality lubricants that are in line with your hydraulic system’s needs. To make this choice easier, in this article we discuss the major characteristics of high-quality hydraulic oils. Spare a few minutes to read it.
Heavy equipment greases are specifically formulated to endure harsh working conditions, environments, and sudden changes in temperature or load. Their selection is wide, and making the right choice can seem daunting, but it will improve equipment longevity and reduce downtime. Here we’ll discuss the challenges of heavy-duty equipment maintenance and the most important aspects of picking the best grease for any operation.
In the mining industry equipment is put through some of the harshest and most hazardous environments. This places incredible demands on heavy-duty equipment. The overall efficiency of any mining operation depends on the uninterrupted functioning and longevity of mining machines. Since this equipment is quite expensive, the longer you manage to extend its operating life, the further you will put off a new purchase or repair. Learn how!
A key to any mine’s profitability lies in high-performance and well-maintained heavy mining machines. To keep all parts of mining equipment and machines running smoothly, companies need to invest in advanced mining lubricants. What are the types of mining solutions and how to choose them? What are their roles and advantages? At Valvoline, we decided to compile the most common questions asked by our clients in the mining sector and answer them in our ultimate guide to proper mining lubrication.
