| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential importance of equipment maintenance, emphasizing the education and training of equipment managers. States that "three things cause machines to lose their usefulness: obsolescence, accidents, and surface degradation." Details ways in which chemicals and three-body abrasion can damage equipment. Continues that "contact fatigue is the greatest when loads are permitted to concentrate on surface asperities, shoulders of dents, and where particles bridge surfaces under load." Concludes that proper education will lengthen the life of equipment. |
