Lubrication

Lubrication of key moving elements in industrial systems is needed to ensure long usable life, functional safety and efficiency in mechanical systems. Automated lubrication is a way to achieve continuous lubrication. Examples from the industrial environment include linear guidings and machine bearings used in machine tools for example.

The mp6 micropump can handle oil viscosities of up to 120 mPas. It can be configured to supply either low continuous amounts of lubricant or larger interval based rates. It’s low weight and compact dimensions allow placing the pump directly at the point of lubrication and even mounting it on rotating or moving elements.
