The basic function of an automated lubrication system is to deliver lubricant to specific points in a machine at specific times. To do this, it incorporates several standard components.

When it comes to operating complex machinery, friction is the enemy. Unfortunately, manual lubrication processes may create more problems than they solve, and are often unreliable and wasteful. Automated lubrication systems take the guesswork out of maintaining your vital moving components.

Complex machinery is made up of hundreds, or even thousands of moving parts. Cables, gears, pumps, bearings, pistons, fans, turbines, centrifuges–these vital components work tirelessly together. But movement creates friction, and friction generates heat. And with so many different parts pumping, rotating, oscillating, and grinding, it doesn’t take long for that heat to get out of control.

Lubricants, often in the form of grease or oil, reduce the friction inherent in complex machinery, allowing moving parts to slide past each other without producing excess heat. But while this is certainly no secret to machinists around the world, improper lubrication still accounts for 70% of equipment failures.

The simple truth is that manual lubrication just isn’t reliable or accurate enough. And when potentially millions of dollars worth of equipment are at stake, you need something more dependable.

An automated lubrication system (ALS; also called a centralized lubrication system or auto greaser) is a mechanical tool that may be applied to existing machinery to automate the distribution of lubricant to multiple components. These systems are designed to deliver a controlled amount of lubricant, ensuring optimal lubrication, applied regularly. These systems may function even while the equipment is operating, reducing downtime and allowing for increased throughput.

Lack of lubrication causes its share of problems. But in many cases, it’s the manual lubrication process that’s the real enemy. Ineffective, unregulated processes may lead to insufficient lubrication applied to key pivot points. At other times, applying too much lube to your equipment can drive up supply costs, and spilled oil and grease is not only messy but also represents a safety hazard.
