What will I learn?
Gain essential skills in tribology to minimise friction, manage wear, and prolong bearing lifespan in tough conditions. Master lubrication types, viscosity choices, EHL film calculations, and PV assessments, then use contact mechanics on actual loads. Develop practical techniques for analysing failures, monitoring conditions, reporting, and scheduling maintenance to improve reliability and reduce stoppages.
