How to dispense with manual lubrication
Time is money and downtime means losses – in the food industry sector and many others. So getting rid of time-consuming, inefficient and imprecise manual lubrication can help to optimise efficiency, minimise downtime and extend equipment service life. Which is why the simalube automatic lubricator hasn’t just revolutionised lubrication. It’s transformed productivity.
simalube lubricant dispensers can now be found in production environments from beverage bottling lines to vegetable processing plants. And the continuous and automatic lubrication they provide has not only increased efficiency but also reduced the workload of production staff.
By providing a continuous supply of perfectly placed, accurately measured lubricant to the lubrication points, simalube dispensers reduce friction and wear, which helps to extend machine service life. This in turn leads to a significant reduction in downtime and an increase in overall productivity.
Success – bottled
At many well-known beverage production facilities worldwide, you can find simalube lubricators on filling lines, palletising systems, packaging and conveyor systems and more. And while this lubrication automation has improved system reliability, it has also led to cost savings.
Similar successes have been recorded in a medium-sized vegetable trading company in Switzerland. simalube dispensers have helped to eliminate the daily, time-consuming lubrication process, and increase operational reliability.
It’s payback time
According to Yves Rhyn, simatec AG’s dedicated Area Sales Manager for the UK, ‘the simalube pay-back calculation serves as a basis for decision-making. This calculation is the turning point for so many factories, away from manual lubrication and towards automatic lubrication with simalube.’
Now, says Rhyn, ’our mission is to transform the maintenance process in the food industry. We see a world in which machine downtime is reduced to a minimum and productivity is maximised. simalube makes this possible.’
