As a consequence of the collaboration agreement between Preditec and Tekniker we are pleased to offer you this interesting certification course as Machinery Lubricant Analyst.
This course is designed for those responsible for the design, management and control of industrial maintenance programs in which lubrication is included as an active part.

• Maintenance Managers
• Industrial plant maintenance managers.

Around 75% of the industrial plants in our territory do not have a lubrication program, the vast majority of activities related to lubrication are carried out in isolation and without a clear objective. Lubricant storage, oil analysis, regreasing and a long etcetera of tasks are rarely beneficial if they are not carried out within a previously defined framework.

To improve this area of maintenance, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of the specific needs of each industrial plant, the design of a program involves covering all areas in which the lubricant plays a key role.
