simalube in use in the plastics industry

The plastic producing industry is a branch of the chemical industry and can be divided into plastic production, plastic processing and plastic machine construction. The simalube lubrication system is also used in a wide variety of production processes. With simalube, the machines and systems can be lubricated automatically over a period of 1-12 months. The continuous lubrication reduces expensive machine failures.

Lubrication points

The world's smallest lubricator, simalube 15ml, automatically lubricates a rack for up to a year in the plastics industry.

The simalube 15ml constantly and automatically lubricates a rack in the plastics industry for one year.

A toothed rack in the plastics industry is automatically lubricated with the simalube 15ml lubricator.

Challenges

High demands on the cleanliness of the systems and their surroundings
No time for maintenance interventions since production is often around the clock

Solution

Due to the low amount of lubrication, the small simalube 15 - 60 ml are often used
