In industries such as oil exploration and mining, machinery downtime means huge losses. One of the key components that directly affects system uptime is the clutch — the critical link between engine power and machine action.

Common Clutch Problems:

Friction disc wear

Overheating

Oil or dust contamination

Misalignment or improper mounting

Preventive Maintenance Tips:

Regularly inspect friction surfaces and pressure plates

Check for air or hydraulic leaks in pneumatic systems

Align components according to manufacturer specifications

Keep the clutch system clean and dry

Use only recommended replacement parts

By implementing a scheduled inspection and preventive maintenance routine, you can extend clutch life, avoid costly repairs, and ensure your equipment delivers peak performance.
