The problems before reliable wear evalution using traditional lab based methods, such as ferrography, x-ray and spectrography, are discussed. One of those problems is that only a subset of wear debris features is measured by each method, which does not allow one to determine wear type. Filter sample analysis technology must be developed, because oil sample is devoid of diagnostic information due to fine filtration. The solution to aforementioned problems is proposed in the form of a newly developing microwave plasma method.
