Introduction
 In this power point we well talk about the E.P
gear box problem and the steps of the complete
maintenance for this gear box

Also we will indicate the statues for this gear

box before and after the complete maintenance.

The problem Description
 The problem started when the inspection engineer notice a little change in
the vibration readings to be 3mm/s ,some noise coming from the gear
box and oil leakage from the low and high speed shafts.

We make a follow for this gear box and we notice that the noise is higher
and the readings for the vibration measurements was more than the usual
one to be 4mm/s and 5mm/s.

All this plus the vibration engineer tell us in his monthly report there are
a problem in the gear box bearings and it needs to be checked quickly.

At 20.09.2014 the noise become harder and the vibration reading was
6mm/s so we decided to stop the E.P fan immediately to check the gears
and it was in a good condition except the gear pattern was very bad
which indicates that the bearings have some defect.

The monthly report for vibration engineer tell the gear box status became
worst and need to replace the gear box bearings.

So we take the action to stop the E.P fan to make a complete maintenance
for the gear box as soon as possible.
