FROM THE DESK
Publisher’s
Note
O
ur magazine Machinery
Lubrication India has
completed its 7 years
with this issue. We’ve
published over thousand articles. We
always try to publish the most valuable
articles and our dear readers take care
of the rest, promoting the article
throughout the social platforms and
sharing it with colleagues’ offline.
Sometimes an article instigates new
discussions on and beyond our
Magazine. When the article gets
published, we are absolutely confident
that we are delivering value to our
readers.
Anniversaries inevitably lead to
introspection and retrospection. Since
our very first issue (Sep-Oct, 2012), MLI
has been devoted to providing value to
Lubrication. Our stellar authors deserve
credit for sharing their ideas and
experiences.
Tailoring our publication to meet the
reader’s need – a mission we have always
taken seriously. Keeping in mind the
changing digital world, we took an
initiative in 2017 to feature our magazine
across all major digital stands. Readers
can visit our website or refer e-book for
easy reference of the past issues. We
have introduced Face-to-Face section a
few months back. This section contains
interviews with persons who matters in
the field of lubricants, lubrication and
reliability and they share their first-hand
knowledge with our readers. This has
proved to be a popular and successful
addition.
While it is tempting to dwell upon an
editorial analysis of past successes,
challenges, and mysteries, we are happy
to announce our newest content. In
honour of MLI 7th anniversary, we are
introducing new sections like ‘Great
pioneers that inspire us’ in which readers
will get a chance to know about the life,
achievements, research, writings of
great pioneers who made a profound
impact on industry & academia. Also
being introduced is a section titled
‘What if…?’ in which readers will get to
understand a particular situation and
how the author handled or resolved the
situation. We are also planning to
introduce a section called ‘Buyer’s
guide’ - a comprehensive directory of
companies who offer products and
services
within
the
machinery
lubrication, reliability maintenance, and
oil analysis industries. This shall be
introduce soon. We hope our readers
will equally appreciate these new
sections.
We thank our readers for sending their
feedback and sharing their experiences
reading our magazine, you can read it in
‘From the readers’ section.
The reason why this magazine exists and
why the articles are even being published
is because of you, dear reader, keep
