MUMBAI, India, Jan. 23 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511123077 A) filed by K. R. Mangalam University, Gurugram, Haryana, on Dec. 6, 2025, for 'system for intelligent lubrication distribution through predictive wear modeling.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Ravinder Beniwal; and Dr. Feroz Ahmed.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention provides a system for intelligent lubrication distribution through predictive wear modeling, configured to optimize lubrication delivery across mechanical interfaces subjected to dynamic operating conditions. The system incorporates a plurality of sensors positioned at frictional components to capture real-time mechanical signatures including temperature, vibration, load, rotational velocity, acoustic emissions, and lubricant condition. A predictive wear modeling engine analyzes these data streams to forecast future wear progression and determine lubrication demand for each monitored interface. An intelligent controller interprets these predictions and governs a distributed lubrication network that modulates lubrication timing, dosage, and delivery location. The system autonomously regulates lubrication based on real-time and anticipated mechanical states, thereby reducing friction-induced degradation, improving component longevity, minimizing lubricant waste, and enhancing operational efficiency. The invention is adaptable to legacy and modern machinery and enables self-optimizing lubrication cycles using machine intelligence, real-time sensing, and predictive maintenance principles."
