Automatic lubrication insures a continuous lubrication at a regular intervals the greasing points and the special points which have difficult access. It works while the machines engine is running along when all points are in movement.
The central automatic lubrication is used to control the amount of lubricant distributed on the points where the friction is a problem. A regular lubrication maintains a film of grease which prevents contamination of your surfaces in sealing inter space around each of them. This collar keeps away the dust, sand and water to filter through and create an abrasive surface and prevents premature wear.
A good lubrication is essential for preventative maintenance of your equipment
The obstacles of manual lubrication
- Climatic conditions.
- Production applications.
- Regularity and reliability of the operator to lubricate.
- Service truck planning (logistic).
- Location of the machinery.
- The operator's security (slippery machine, inaccessible points).
- Machinery stopping frequently.
- Certain parts (articulation, attachments, etc.) require to be greased often during the day.
The advantages of automatic lubrication
- Longer lasting components are the top advantages. The potential savings through the increase lifespan of the components and an increase of productivity along with a more efficient consumption of grease will insure you a return on investment.
- Insures a continuous lubrication at regular intervals
- Each point receives a precise amount of lubricant corresponding to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
- Constantly maintains ideal level of lubricant on all points (seals joints against contamination and dust).
- Permits to save significantly on grease up to 50% compared to greasing manually (Contributes to protecting the environment).
- Maximize performance in eliminating lost time due to shut down for maintenance and repair.
- No greasing points are forgotten or neglected, especially the points that are difficult to reach.
- Insures a complete lubrication of the machine whatever.
- Increases the life span of the parts linked to the system compared to a manual lubrication.
- Reduces maintenance costs and repair costs.
- Increases the resale value of the equipment.
