Secondly, precise control of the lubrication amount is difficult, easily leading to over-lubrication (wasting lubricant) or under-lubrication (insufficient lubrication). Furthermore, forgetting to lubricate or delaying lubrication can accelerate bearing wear due to poor lubrication, shortening bearing life and affecting equipment operation. Utility Model Content
