Grease Testing Laboratory – Key to Equipment Durability
Prevent Costly Equipment Failures with Routine Grease Testing
Grease Testing Laboratory provides a preventative maintenance solution that helps industries detect early signs of contamination, degradation, and mechanical wear before downtime or failure occurs. Grease Testing plays a major role reduces friction, minimizes wear, and ensures the optimal operation of your equipment.
We evaluate essential properties such as consistency, dropping point, oil separation, contamination, and base oil viscosity through advanced grease testing and analysis. The grease test is performed using precise ASTM methods to detect signs of wear or chemical breakdown that may compromise equipment performance. Our grease testing lab helps identify these issues early, preventing unexpected downtime and reducing maintenance costs. We serve a wide range of industries, including automotive, manufacturing, construction, mining, marine, and aviation—where reliability and performance are crucial.
Our Grease Testing Laboratory helps clients to make informed decisions on grease change intervals, suitability for specific applications, and potential compatibility concerns. With our accurate testing and expert analysis, you can ensure that your lubrication systems remain efficient, your machinery runs smoothly, and your operations continue without interruption.
Why is Grease Testing Matters
Grease Testing Laboratory provides valuable insight into equipment condition, potential failure points, and effective preventive maintenance strategies. CME Grease Testing helps you:
Detect Lubricant Degradation
Identify oxidation, evaporation loss, and breakdown of base oil or thickener
Monitor for Contaminants
Detect the presence of dust, water, fuel, or other contaminants that impact performance
Detect Mechanical Wear
Use elemental analysis to recognize early indicators of bearing, bushing, or gear wear
Assess Moisture Content
Protection against corrosion, rust formation, and thinning of lubricant from water intrusion
What is Grease Testing?
Grease Testing involves sampling grease from operating machinery and performing detailed laboratory testing to evaluate both lubricant health and component condition.
