A centralised lubrication system is a device that automatically delivers lubricants to various lubrication points of mechanical equipment through a central control system. Its main purpose is to ensure that all parts of the machine receive timely and adequate lubrication during operation, reducing wear and tear, lowering failure rates, extending equipment lifespan, and enhancing overall production efficiency.

I. Working Principle of Centralized Lube System
1. Lubrication Pump

Responsible for delivering the lubricant from the storage container to various lubrication points. The lubrication pumps can be manually operated or driven by electricity or pneumatics.

2. Distributor

Evenly distributes the lubricant to each lubrication point. The grease distributor ensures that each point receives an accurate amount of lubricant.

3. Controller

Controls the operation of the central lubrication system, setting lubrication time and lubricant quantity. The controller can be a simple timer or a complex computer control system capable of adjusting lubrication parameters based on the machine’s operating status and needs.

4. Pipeline System

Connects the lubrication pump, distributor, and various lubrication points. The pipeline system must have good sealing and pressure resistance to prevent leakage and ensure smooth delivery of the lubricant.

II. Advantages of Centralized Lubrication System
1. High Degree of Automation

The central grease lubrication system can automatically perform lubrication without manual operation, greatly reducing labor costs and operational errors.

2. Good Lubrication Effect

The system can precisely control the supply of lubricants and the lubrication time, ensuring that each lubrication point is always in optimal lubrication condition, reducing equipment wear and failure.

3. Simple Maintenance

The central control system can monitor lubrication conditions in real-time, promptly detecting and addressing lubrication issues, thereby reducing the complexity and frequency of equipment maintenance.

4. Extended Equipment Lifespan and Improved Production Efficiency

By reducing friction and wear, the centralised grease lubrication system extends equipment lifespan, improves production efficiency, and lowers operating costs.
