The operating conditions for machinery and equipment in the construction materials extraction industry are considered harsh, as they are used outdoors and in extreme temperature fluctuations, mud, dirt as well as humidity and moisture. A continuous lubrication point supply is therefore indispensable. Without regular maintenance, parts will wear out or corrode, causing significant malfunctions and resulting in enormous repair and maintenance work. The use of simalube lubricant dispensers extends the service life of bearings through continuous lubricant delivery and thus significantly reduces maintenance costs in mines, quarries, concrete and cement plants.
| Challenges | Solution |
|---|---|
| Rough use often outdoors in adverse weather conditions | Simalube 125 ml and 250 ml |
| High stress due to vibrations and impacts | Accessories for mounting and protecting the lubricant dispensers |
| Risk of damage from bulk material | IMPULSE connect: Digital monitoring and configuration of the lubrication points via Bluetooth®. The lubrication points can be monitored from a distance of 20 m. The device can be used to increase the pressure up to 10 bar. |
| Lubrication points are not easy to reach, often only at airy heights |
Areas of application and advantages
| Simalube applications in the production of construction material and processing | Advantages of the simalube lubrication system |
|---|---|
| Conveyors | Reliability: Once installed, the lubrication points are reliably lubricated and never forgotten |
| Transport systems | The hermetically sealed system prevents contamination by dust and debris (IP68) |
| Belt tensioners | Reduction of service requirements and maintenance costs: Manual lubrication is no longer necessary meaning fewer disruptions and a huge saving of time |
| Mixing beds | Longer service life of machines thanks to continuous and accurate lubrication |
| Ventilation systems/Fans | Flexibility: The running time is adjustable from 1–12 months |
| Rotary kilns | No need to shut down the machines during maintenance |
| Gears/engines | The products are approved in all ATEX areas (in explosive areas) |
| Mills | |
| Shifters | |
| Silos & silo filling | |
| Pumps | |
| Crushers |
