Study on the Application of Water Jet Technology in Artillery Maintenance

Abstract

To coat with much of lubricating grease is an effective approach to slow down the wearing and rusting trend of each mechanism, the lubricating grease must be removed before grease-change maintenance and overhauling of the artillery. At present, the grease removing methods mainly include physical heating, mechanical removal, chemical cleaning, etc. Comparing the advantages and disadvantages of various methods, this paper proposes to use the technology of a high-pressure water jet cleaning. This method overcomes the problems in the process of grease removal.
