Lubrication of bearings
Challenge 1: Lubricate without stopping the operation
The result
Thanks to Interflon, the following was achieved:
- Extended lubrication intervals by 500% from 15 days to 90 days
- Reduced lubrication time by 60%
- Increased production time by eliminating lubrication stops
Challenge 2: Improve safety and lubrication of hard-to-reach lubrication points
The result
The installation of a centralized grease lubrication system yielded the following results:
- 100% correctly lubricated points
- Improved safety in the plant
- Bearing lifespan increased by 2x
- Reduced maintenance downtime since the machine can be lubricated while in operation
