Condition monitoring, lubricants, oil analysis, gearbox
Details
Servicing technicians and specialists in ropeway companies learn how to avoid gearbox damage, maximize operating intervals, extend servicing intervals, and plan optimum standstill times. You will receive an overview on preventative maintenance measures, and indications signaling faults.
You will get an insight into how oil analysis and gearbox inspection specialists work, and find out who you can ask if you are in doubt. The theoretical principles are illustrated with the help of concrete practical examples. This course is arranged in conjunction with the company Oildoc and the engineering consultancy Ingenieurbüro David Wimmer.
