A system for executing a lubrication plan including a grease meter for measuring a volumetric flow of grease through the meter. The grease meter having a memory for storing a set of instructions that includes a series of prescribed grease volumes be delivered at a corresponding series of lubrication points, a memory for storing a volume of grease delivered at a particular lubrication point and is configured to communicate with the display device. A display device includes a memory for storing an image of each lubrication point in the series, each image being a photograph of the machine that has the lubrication point. The machine is configured to display each image along with the prescribed grease volume to be delivered at the corresponding lubrication point. The displayed image of a further lubrication point in the series image is triggered by the grease meter when a delivered volume is stored.

System and method for executing a lubrication plan

A method of executing a lubrication plan for lubricating a plurality of machines with grease is provided. Each machine includes one or more lubrication points where grease is delivered. The method defines a set of instructions for the lubrication plan, including at least a series of prescribed grease volumes to be delivered at a corresponding series of lubrication points; generating an image of each lubrication point in the series, including a visual indication of the location of that lubrication point on the machine; storing the set of instructions and each generated image in a system including a grease meter and a display device; displaying a generated image of a lubrication point on the display device, including the prescribed grease volume be delivered there; delivering grease at that lubrication point via the grease meter, displaying a generated image of a further lubrication point, including the prescribed grease volume be delivered there.
