Central Lubrication System Used In Automation Industrial
Central Lubrication Systems in industrial automation significantly reduce machinery wear and maintenance needs while enhancing operational efficiency.
AUTOMATION LUBRICATION
CENTRAL LUBRICATION SYSTEM
For the automation industry, equipment downtime is unacceptable in a world with increasing fulfillment demands. It is crucial to have an automatic lubrication system in place to prevent unplanned downtime. By lubricating your equipment properly, you can extend its life. Additionally, the system conserves lubricant, reducing over-lubrication, product contamination, and waste. We can design a turnkey system for your specific equipment that is fully standalone with onboard control or can tie into your existing equipment controls.

LUBRICATION SYSTEM (4)
Auto lubrication, also known as automatic lubrication or centralized lubrication, is a system designed to provide lubrication to various moving parts of machinery or equipment in an automated and efficient manner. The purpose of auto lubrication is to reduce friction between the components, enhance performance, extend the lifespan of the equipment, and minimize downtime.
In an auto lubrication system, lubricant, such as oil or grease, is stored in a reservoir or container. It is then distributed to specific lubrication points through a network of pipes, hoses, or channels. The distribution is controlled by a central pump or a series of pumps that deliver the lubricant at predetermined intervals or based on specific conditions, such as time, machine cycles, or sensors monitoring temperature or pressure.
The lubricant is typically applied through fittings, nozzles, or lubrication points strategically placed on the equipment. These lubrication points ensure that critical areas, such as bearings, gears, chains, slides, and other high-friction components, receive the necessary lubrication automatically and consistently.
Benefits of auto lubrication systems include:
1. Improved equipment reliability: By ensuring consistent and proper lubrication, auto lubrication systems reduce friction, heat, wear, and the likelihood of failures or breakdowns.
2. Increased productivity: Equipment can operate more efficiently and reliably when all moving parts are well-lubricated, resulting in enhanced productivity and reduced maintenance requirements.
3. Extended equipment life: Proper lubrication helps prevent premature wear and damage to components, leading to increased equipment lifespan.
4. Reduced manual maintenance: Auto lubrication systems eliminate the need for manual lubrication by technicians, saving time, effort, and potential human errors.
5. Cost savings: With reduced equipment failures, less downtime, and extended equipment life, auto lubrication systems can result in significant cost savings over time.
Auto lubrication is an effective and efficient way to ensure that machinery and equipment operate smoothly, reliably, and with minimal manual intervention.
