Bearing's in an industrial environment, rarely last as long as the original equipment designer/engineers expected. There are a variety of reasons surrounding contamination with water or other materials. Essentially it comes down to bad practice in managing lubrication levels and replacements. In addition, oil spills to the environment and resulting cleanup are also large concerns.
I just came across an article in a lube magazine, where the author does a great job of describing re-design work that he and his team of put in place to better manage lubrication in their gearboxes. Please take a look at the article here:http://www.machinerylubrication.com/Read/905/accessorizing-gearboxes I think the ideas are well worth your time.
