Reliability improvement of heavy machineries friction units

Abstract

s. The demand for more sustainable agriculture promotes the need for friction parts and components with a high durability and better performance. Widely known that absence of the constant and smooth lubricant supply into the working system is the main cause of the decline in reliability. As a result, most of the time the machines work in conditions of a lubricant deficiency. Thus, the development and implementation of the direct adaptive control methods into the friction nodes could be of great importance. Moreover, this approach increases reliability and simplifies the industrial application of the similar systems.
