Abstract: A method for controlling the introduction of additional lubricant (4) into a bearing (3) lubricated with a lubricant (4), in particular a rolling bearing or plain bearing, comprising the following steps is provided:—determining lubricant state information describing the state, in particular the chemical composition, of the lubricant (4) contained in the bearing (3) and—controlling the introduction of additional lubricant (4) into the bearing (3) depending on the state, which is described by the determined lubricant state information, of the lubricant (4) contained in the bearing (3).

Abstract: A lubrication station for lubricating a bearing with a lubricant. The lubrication station has a pump for pumping the lubricant, a receptacle for receiving the lubricant as a lubricant stock for the pump, a receiving device for receiving the pump and the receptacle in a transportable and operable state, and a mechanical interface for lifting or lowering and/or carrying the lubrication station. The lubrication station is a mobile standing device.
