The solution extended the lifetime of the wheel motor bearing to 33,000 hours.
Application
Electro haul unit rig wheel motor bearings in dusty conditions.
Identify
By working collaboratively with the mine it was determined that high performance grease should be used from the beginning of the machines operation life.
Agree
It was agreed to use Castrol Molub-Alloy GM 690/320 to achieve benefits of:
- Maximum component life time
- Lowest lubricant related maintenance
- Lowest operating costs
- Maximum machine availability
Deliver
Wheel motor bearings life extended to more than 33,000.
Savings achieved in component life.
Reduced downtime lead to increased production.
