SOLUTION

Concept:

There are 3 systems of lubrication.

  • Gravity feed system: Oil holes, Oil cups and wick feed lubricators

  • Force feed system: Oil, grease gun and grease cups and Oil pump method
  • Splash feed system: It is also known as the Ring Oiling system. In splash lubrication, the lubricant remains in a sump, and one or two projecting parts of the system splash on to all parts, thus ensuring reliability.
