Purpose
The purpose of the paper is to provide information on wear debris on oil and vibration analysis as predictive maintenance techniques in reducer.
Design/methodology/approach
The estate of a reducer is verified by analyzing the vibration and oil conditions of a test rig under well‐designed conditions utilizing some predictive variables.
Findings
According to the vibration and oil analysis it is found out what it was happening into the reducer without disassembling it.
Practical implications
This paper demonstrates the use of oil debris analysis and vibration analysis as a technique that enhances preventive maintenance practices. The paper helps practitioners to utilize these techniques more effectively.
Originality/value
This paper gives information about two predictive maintenance techniques with a test rig.
