Chain lubrication systems use a variety of lubricants. Consider the viscosity of your lubrication system and chain. Lubricants should be stored between -20°F and 150°F. In non-sealed environments, a filter or another cleaning strategy is needed.

Oil or another lubricant can be applied in a lot of ways. Chain lubrication systems are better than manual lubrication. Some auto lube systems work at high speeds and at high temperatures, while others lubricate slow-moving belts. Chain or conveyor size can also affect the optimal lubrication system.

Each chain joint is lubricated with a chain lubrication system. Thus, they extend the life of the chain, reduce maintenance issues, and simplify the lubrication process.

Chain lubrication streamlines your operation. If you don’t have an automated system, your employees may need to manually lubricate the chain. As a result, employees are exposed to safety risks and downtime.

If the chain is dirty, wipe it clean with kerosene or a nonflammable solvent before relubricating. For drip lubrication, ensure that the flow rate is as specified and that oil is properly directed onto the chain. Check the oil level in the reservoir at least daily and refill as necessary.

Oil Stream: The oil is pumped under pressure to nozzles that deliver a stream or spray onto the lower span of the chain from the inside of the loop. The excess oil is collected in the bottom of the sump and returned to the pump via a reservoir.

Bestconveyor chain lubrication system

A conveyor lubrication system can improve the maintenance and operational life of a number of chain-driven systems. The amount of lubrication can vary, but the system offers customizable application levels to tailor to your industry. The most common applications are luggage conveyors, painting ovens, food and beverage ovens and floor conveyors.

Slinger Disk: Instead of a pressurized system, a slinger disk uses the mechanical force of the moving sprocket and chain to propel oil around the chain.

Drip: A single applicator or a wick-packed distribution pipe offers one or more lubrication points for your chain system.

Armor Lubricants industrial oil are designed to provide effective lubrication for chain conveyor at high temperatures and prevent residue build-up. This oil also increases the life of the conveyors and drives.

Automaticchain lubrication system

A chain lubrication system is used to deliver optimal amounts of lubricant to each chain joint. It extends the lifetime of the chain, reduces maintenance issues and streamlines the chain lubrication process. It is a critical preventative maintenance component for your chain, drive or conveyor.

For oil stream lubrication, check the oil level in the reservoir at least daily and add oil as necessary. Ensure that all orifices and nozzles are clear and that oil is properly directed onto the chain. Manual and drip lubrication of chain drives apply to chain conveyors.

Manual: While a chain lubrication system can be used for these applications, a manual application can also achieve similar results.
