Since New Manta NV started using Mobil SHC Grease 462 PF, no calendar bearing problems have occurred anymore and they managed to extend regreasing intervals to 3 weeks. On yearly basis, this leads to €16.000 reduction in maintenance costs.

Thanks to Mobilith SHC 1000 Special, bearing life time was increased up to 1200 tons (8 x longer), resulting in following savings:

• € 3.360 savings on bearing purchase and replacement costs.
• 42 hours of unplanned down time avoided, potentially leading to  168 tons of extra production.

Mobilgrease XHP 222 helped the Z.279 Ramblers to significantly reduce their grease consumption and to double the regreasing intervals. Consequently, the Z.279 Ramblers has an annual saving of 620 EUR in grease. Additionally, the revision cost was also cut in half to 3750 EUR/year (15000 EUR/4 years). Furthermore, there is also a spectacular decrease in the number of early failures of critical components like bearings and pumps. The corrosion in these components also decreased significantly.
