Lubrication of Gearboxes
Challenge: Improve equipment reliability
The palletizer gearbox at the customer's plant reached high operating temperatures due to friction. The gearbox experienced lubricant leaks, and the lubricant emulsified with water, leading to frequent stops for repairs.
Our solution
We recommended Interflon Grease MP00, a high performance easily pumpable lubricating grease with excellent anti-leak features.
The result
By applying Interflon Grease MP00, the following was achieved:
- 300% increase in lubrication intervals, from 8,000 hours to 32,000 hours.
- Elimination of lubricant leaks.
- Reduced need for repairs.
