Electric motors are used to drive many devices, working machines and vehicles. Electric motors usually generate rotating movements, but they can also be built for translatory movements (linear drive). Electric motors usually have bearings on 2 sides, and these bearings must be lubricated. There are several factors that determine how often a bearing should be lubricated: Operating hours, speed, bearing size, bearing type and the way the motor is mounted are just a few of them. For this reason, simatec has developed Calculation Pro for you, which helps you choose the right lubricant dispenser for your engine.
| CHALLENGES | SOLUTION |
|---|---|
| Environment: high temperatures, high temperature fluctuations, pollution | In most cases, the lubricators are mounted directly on the lubrication points (bearings or seals). If the lubricant is supplied via a hose line, the IMPULSE connect, with which a higher pressure can be achieved, is often used. |
| Technical: high loads, vibrations, high operating temperatures | |
| Installation: poor accessibility, little space, sometimes increased back pressure |
