Why lubrication systems?
You are might wondering why should you install a centralised and automated system to just lubricate the machine. Below are crucial reasons and situations to lubricate complex machineries and heavy duty equipment.
01
Prevents machine failure
Heavy machines (like conveyors, crushers, or milling equipment) often fail due to lack of lubrication. A centralised lubrication system ensures each critical spot in a machine receives the correct amount of lubricant at regular intervals, reducing wear and preventing costly failures.
02
Reduces downtime
In industries like mining, steel, or manufacturing, equipment such as hydraulic presses or excavators must run continuously. An automated lubrication system keeps components lubricated while in operation, avoiding shutdowns for manual greasing and preventing sudden breakdowns. So without too much hassle.
03
Improves ground staff safety
Manually lubricating machines in hard-to-reach or dangerous areas (e.g., high conveyors or hot zones) exposes workers to risk. An automated system removes this need by automatically delivering lubricant from a safe, central point.
04
Consistency
In dusty, wet, or hot conditions (such as cement plants or foundries), lubricants can degrade quickly. Dropsa's system provides timely, sealed lubrication that protects components better than manual methods and reduces contamination risk.
05
Safe time, safe cost
By automatically lubricating your machine, you reduce downtime and labour cost. It saves money and time by delivering only the needed amount of lubricant (no more, no less). A centralised system also avoids over-lubrication waste. It also reduces the frequency of component replacements and emergency repairs, cutting long-term maintenance expenses.
