  2. Backlash (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlash_(engineering)

    In mechanical engineering, backlash, sometimes called lash, play, or slop, is a clearance or lost motion in a mechanism caused by gaps between the parts. It can be defined as "the maximum distance or angle through which any part of a mechanical system may be moved in one direction without applying appreciable force or motion to the next part in mechanical sequence."

  3. Micro pitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_pitting

    Micro pitting occurs only under poor EHD lubrication conditions. A surface with a deep scratch might break exactly at the scratch if stress is applied. One can imagine that the surface roughness is a composite of many very small scratches. So high surface roughness decreases the stability on heavy stressed parts.

  4. Stribeck curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stribeck_curve

    The two sub-problems are coupled through the load carried by the lubricant and by the “dry” contact. In its simplest approximation, the lubrication sub-problem can be represented via a central film thickness fit [ 14 ] to calculate the film thickness and the Greenwood-Williamson model [ 15 ] for the “dry” contact sub-problem.

    Gear oil is a lubricant made specifically for transmissions, transfer cases, and differentials in automobiles, trucks, and other machinery. It has high viscosity and ...

  6. Jewel bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewel_bearing

    The advantages of jewel bearings include high accuracy, very small size and weight, low and predictable friction, good temperature stability, and the ability to operate without lubrication and in corrosive environments. They are known for their low kinetic friction and highly consistent static friction. [3]

  7. Automatic lubrication system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_lubrication_system

    The automatic lubrication system is connected to a control system via switchs. The control system may involve human input or may be computerised (computer numerical control or CNC). [2] [3] There are advantages of using an automatic lubrication system over a manual system. For example, there are savings in the costs of human resources. The ...

  9. Dry lubricant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_lubricant

    For parts that are inaccessible for lubrication after assembly, a dry film lubricant can be sprayed. After the solvent evaporates, the coating cures at room temperature to form a solid lubricant. Pastes are grease-like lubricants containing a high percentage of solid lubricants used for assembly and lubrication of highly loaded, slow-moving parts.
