The motor of a magnetic drilling machine can be of two types depending on the lubrication system of gears inside the motor.
43.
Typically a forced lubrication systems have a lubricant flow higher than what is required to lubricate satisfactorily, in order to assist with cooling.
44.
This was for similar reasons to the internal combustion engine, as avoiding the piston rod and its seals allowed a more effective crankcase lubrication system.
45.
The developed engine features a dry sump lubrication system allowing the engine to be positioned low in the chassis, for an optimised centre of gravity.
46.
On March 28, 2010, there was a fire in a lubrication system for one of the water pumps that feeds water for generation of steam.
47.
It has an eight-cylinder engine with the cylinders divided by two separate blocks affixed to a single alloy crankcase with a dry sump lubrication system.
48.
Even though these systems are usually fully automated, a system that requires a manual pump or button activation is still identified as a centralized lubrication system.
49.
In the interest of both engine longevity as well as creating some extra space under the hood, a " dry sump " engine lubrication system was used.
50.
The lubrication system also transports wear particles from the insides of the engine and flushes them through a filter to keep the oil and oil wetted components clean.
