Following the recent South African Institute of tribology (SAIT) annual national awards dinner in Johannesburg, WearCheck is very proud to report that our senior diagnostician - Steven Lara-Lee Lumley - was awarded the prize for best technical presentation, for her paper entitled "The winds of change - The role of oil analysis in wind turbine gearbox reliability". The award-winning paper was presented at the SAIT technical meeting in March 2014.

‘Being singled out to win this top industry award is a great honour for Steven, ‘ says WearCheck MD Neil Robinson.  ‘Gaining recognition for her work above experts from all around South Africa has given credit to both Steven and WearCheck for producing top quality work. Well done, Steven!’
