How to choose a centralized lubrication system for mechanical engineering? This is not something that can be explained clearly in one or two sentences, first of all, let me introduce what a centralized lubrication system is. A centralized lubrication system, also known as an automatic lubrication system, is the use of computer control to deliver lubricant to the precise area where it is needed. Centralized lubrication systems are a common tool used in industry to dispense precise quantities of lubricant to specific locations at specific times by using programmable timers, lubricant pumps and lubricant injectors.
How does a centralized lubrication system work? The centralized lubrication oil supply system solves the shortcomings of traditional manual lubrication, and can be lubricated regularly, at a fixed point and quantitatively during mechanical operation, so that the wear of the machine parts is minimized, the amount of lubricating oil agent is greatly reduced, and the loss of the parts and the maintenance and repair time are reduced while environmental protection and energy saving, and finally the best effect of improving operating income.
Mechanical components are most subject to friction when they are fit to operate normally, so they require thick lubricants such as grease or oil to reduce wear. Centralized automatic lubrication systems increase machine availability while also reducing reliance on scarce talent. These systems provide the right amount of lubrication at the right intervals, minimizing friction and wear and extending the life of machinery. Automatic lubrication systems are designed to lubricate individual machines or entire equipment, providing appropriate, precise lubricant replenishment at all points needed, thus realizing a range of benefits in the process.
So how do you choose a centralized lubrication system for mechanical engineering? In order to make the wear of the friction pair small, it is necessary to maintain a properly clean lubricating oil film on the surface of the friction pair, simply put, to maintain a constant oil supply between the friction surfaces to form an oil film, which is usually the best characteristic of continuous oil supply. However, some small bearings require only 1-2 drops of oil per hour, and it is very difficult for general lubrication equipment to continuously supply oil in proportion to such requirements. Excessive oil supply is just as harmful as insufficient oil supply. For example, some bearings generate additional heat when they are supplied with excess oil. Numerous experiments have confirmed that discontinuous but frequent oil supply is the best way. Therefore, when continuous oil supply becomes inappropriate, we can adopt an economical cycle system to achieve it. This type of system is to make the quantitative lubricating oil continuously supply oil to the lubrication point according to the predetermined cycle time, so that the friction pair maintains an appropriate amount of oil film. In general, the friction pairs on most machines are suitable for lubrication with a cycle lubrication system.
