Precision Ultrasound-Guided Lubrication
Most lubrication programs still run on guesswork. Grease bearings right with ultrasound.
Global manufacturing efforts support supply chains, drive economies, and sustain everyday life. These operations depend on reliable rotating equipment. Machinery lubrication remains the single biggest factor affecting asset reliability. But most teams still grease on fixed schedules, not condition. And when lubrication is mismanaged, unexpected failures follow — putting people, production, and profits at risk. Ultrasound changes that. It gives you real-time feedback to grease with precision — not by schedule. So you can protect your bearings, reduce waste, and prevent failures.
Why Precision Matters
Even with all the advancements in modern manufacturing, many lubrication programs still rely on outdated, calendar-based schedules — greasing bearings at fixed intervals, regardless of actual need. This approach ignores the condition of the bearing. It often leads to over-greasing, which causes heat buildup and contamination — or under-greasing, which increases friction, impacting, and wear.
When lubrication is mismanaged:
Sudden Failures
Bearings fail early and unexpectedly.
Output Deficiency
Production targets get missed and output falls behind.
Workplace Risks
Occupational safety is compromised.
Lubricant Waste
Expensive grease is wasted or overused.
Smarter Lubrication Starts with SDT
SDT doesn’t just sell tools — we help you transform your lubrication strategy. With five decades of ultrasound experience, we partner with reliability teams to:
• Select the right ultrasound and lubrication tools for your goals
• Train technicians on reliability best practices
• Integrate condition-based lubrication into your reliability strategy
• Interpret and act on condition monitoring data with confidence
We build programs that last — backed by data, training, and real-world results.
Ultrasound-guided lubrication turns guesswork into precision.
Ultrasound takes the guesswork out of greasing — helping you protect bearings, extend asset life, and stay on schedule. It gives reliability teams a smarter way to manage, monitor, and deliver precision lubrication.
