In conventional exciters, the bearings are lubricated by oil mist. The gears inside the housing churn the oil into fine droplets, which are distributed within the gearbox. Only a portion of these droplets reaches the rolling bearings and provide the lubrication. Some housings have oil collection pockets on the inside. These are intended to guide the oil along the inner surfaces of the housing downwards into the bearings. However, the entry of oil into the bearings is random and the quantity is undetermined. To improve the entire lubrication, the JOEST Oil Management System has been developed.

2024 was a special year in many ways for our continuously growing JOEST group. To start, we completed the largest acquisition in our company‘s history at the turn of the year with the purchase of the MOGENSEN Group and its locations in Germany, Spain and Sweden.
Yesterday was the day: our traditional #JOESTeam Day Christmas 2024 took place, and it was an evening we will all remember. Amidst the magical, Christmas-lit backdrop of Dülmen’s market square, we came together to bring the year to a close. The ice rink, which was all ours that evening, provided the perfect stage for an exciting and entertaining curling tournament.
