Centralized automatic lubrication systems are an effective way to increase machine availability while reducing reliance on scarce talent. With an automatic lubrication system installed on your construction machines, you know that bearings are receiving the right amount of lubricant at the right time. There is also no need to stop the machine for relubrication – you simply need to keep the lubrication system filled and maintained.
For manual lubrication, training is required to make maintenance staff aware of the importance of properly storing, handling, and applying grease. A lubrication program should be followed to encourage regular relubrication and keep components functioning as they should. Manual lubrication systems, such as multipoint grease guns, can help by using distributors to group lubrication points. This increases the consistency of maintenance as the system avoids the possibility of points being overlooked, and saves time as maintenance staff do not have to search for each point.
Nevertheless, manual lubrication requires the machine to be stopped. Depending on the machine, it usually takes over an hour to complete the task. With manual lubrication methods, bearings are often overgreased initially. They eventually become undergreased as too much time passes until relubrication. Optimal lubrication is only achieved for a short period of time.
Lubrication is a critical aspect in machine reliability. Yet for many operators, manual lubrication is becoming too much of a challenge. By finding a simpler, smarter way to lubricate your machinery, you could maintain reliability without the costs and effort of manual lubrication.
An automatic lubrication system (ALS) lubricates continuously while the machine is working. This increases efficiency as there is no need to stop machinery for lubrication. Lubricating while the bearings are rotating also improves the distribution of lubricant. A small amount of grease remains flowing, keeping out contamination even when the machine is operating in a harsh environment.
