Thoughts on a standardized FE-8 Test for the assessment of the WEC-carrying capacity of lubricants in rolling bearings
<sc:p>For an amount of 141 WEC-Tests on axial cylindrical roller bearings on a so-called FE 8 test equipment, a mechanical WEC safety is calculated from the time to failure value compared with the L10h life. From these values, a factor is derived to get an idea about the influence of the tested lubricants on WEC forming. Furthermore, a study on relevant influence parameters as load and speed is done. Out of these data, a proposal is done for a standardized WEC-test for lubricants.</sc:p>
