We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Grease Lubrication", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Play a major role in preseving natural resources from NSK UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Rolling bearings are indispensable to machinery and equipment; their function is crucial in the role of transferring rotational energy with minimal energy loss: i e, energy conservation". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Dedicated VIPER grinding centre is 10% faster from NCMT: "For creep feed grinding of nickel alloy components in the 'VIPER' process, a purpose dedicated 7-axis machining centre is 10% quicker than the original modified horizontal machining centre".
 
In July 2007, we covered the news from Whitehouse Machine Tools concerning its TC-S2A CNC drill-tap centre - take a look at High quality from low cost drill-tap centre which says: "Oberon Performance breathes new life into old mills with CNC drill-tap centre".
 
Take a look also at the news release from AutoDrill, Attachment enables multi-hole drilling, as well as Split roller bearings safeguards against downtime from Revolvo, and Abrasive machining ousts milling and broaching from NCMT.
