Abstract
The theoretical fundamentals and experience of using the acoustic-emission method for estimating the effectiveness of lubricants for bearing units is considered. The results of practical investigations of the effect of the presence and watering of lubricants on the acoustic emission of a bearing unit are given. It is proposed to go over to repressing the lubricant into the bearing unit on the basis of the results of acoustic-emission testing.
