# Laboratory analysis of mechanical oil residues

## You wish to carry out the analysis of mechanical oil residues in the laboratory

First of all, the analysis of mechanical oil residues allows the control of lubricated and greased mechanisms, which represents an important step in the maintenance of your equipment.

Indeed, the analysis of mechanical oil residues allows the detection of potential problems of contamination (unknown particles, external pollution, etc.), [wear](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-expertise-services/laboratory-analysis-failures/laboratory-analysis-wear.md) or leakage that could impact the reliability of your machines.

The analysis of mechanical oil residues is therefore essential to control the quality and reliability of the mechanisms from which they originate.

However, only a laboratory with state-of-the-art analytical equipment for [oil analysis](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/chemical-analysis-laboratory/analysis-of-mechanical-oil-residues.md) is able to carry out the analysis of mechanical oil residues.
