6. How does an ILC progressive lubrication system work?
An ILC progressive lubrication system delivers grease or oil step by step to multiple lubrication points. It is highly reliable since each divider passes lubricant only after the previous point has been supplied.
How a progressive system works:
-
Pump → Supplies grease or oil under pressure to the distributor block.
-
Progressive divider blocks → Sequentially deliver lubricant to each point.
-
Blockage detection → If one point is blocked, the whole system stops for quick troubleshooting.
-
Automatic cycle → Operates continuously or at intervals depending on the application.
Benefits of an ILC progressive system:
-
Maximum reliability → Blockages are detected instantly.
-
Accurate dosing → Each lubrication point gets the correct amount.
-
Lower maintenance costs → Fewer breakdowns and reduced downtime.
-
Versatile use → Ideal for industry, construction, transport and agriculture.
