Mining

Machine Condition Monitoring based on oil analysis has become an important, if not mandatory, maintenance practice at many of the world’s surface and underground mines. An effective oil analysis program will keep a mine’s important assets in operation by reducing unexpected failures and costly unscheduled downtime.

Oil analysis is applicable to all oil-wetted systems to include:

  • trucks
  • tractors
  • wheeled loaders
  • dozers
  • motor graders
  • crushers
  • scrapers
  • excavators
Spectro Inc. has been working with large and small mining operations throughout the world to provide analytical instruments to enhance existing oil analysis programs and in some cases, we have even provided complete turnkey systems to implement a program from the beginning. We welcome the opportunity to continue to be of service to existing customers and to assist new customers with their oil analysis instrumentation needs.
