What is "single point lubrication"?

Lubrication equipment is a series of grease feeding, grease discharging and its auxiliary devices that provide lubricant to lubrication parts. Mechanical equipment needs regular lubrication. In the past, the lubrication method was mainly based on the working condition of the equipment, and then manual lubrication, such as butter, was carried out after reaching a certain maintenance period. Lubrication equipment mainly includes: electric lubrication pump or manual lubrication pump, reversing valve, differential pressure switch, double-line distributor, single-line progressive distributor, electric cabinet, electric refueling pump, manual refueling pump, multi-point lubrication pump, dry oil filter, dry oil nozzle, one-way valve, overpressure indicator, special copper pipe joint or thin oil lubrication station for lubrication pipeline, tube cooler, magnetic grid filter, double-cylinder net filter, oil flow signal, etc. Complete hydraulic system, oil cylinder, standard welding type, clamping type, flaring type and conical sealing type pipe joints of heavy machinery, single-layer, double-layer and ultrahigh-pressure four-layer high-pressure hose assemblies, steel pipe clamps, high-pressure flanges, etc.

Lubrication equipment can be divided into automatic and manual. The grease gun we usually see belongs to manual lubrication equipment; Automatic lubrication equipment, including pneumatic, electric, hydraulic and other equipment, is a pumping method of lubricating oil, or it needs to guide the lubricating oil to the lubrication point manually, so it is not automatic lubrication in a strict sense.

With the progress of science and technology, automatic lubrication equipment has developed to program control. The automatic lubrication equipment produced by a well-known manufacturer, such as Lincoln, USA, can input the lubrication cycle and the oil consumption of each lubrication point in advance according to the needs of customers. All the workers do is to refuel the lubricating oil container regularly, so that the automatic lubrication system will regularly fill different lubricating points with different amounts of lubricating oil according to the procedures during the operation of the equipment to realize automatic lubrication. Among domestic manufacturers, Yongtai Lubrication, as a private enterprise specializing in lubrication equipment industry for more than ten years, has already developed a mature automatic lubrication equipment system scheme and products. Among them, the intelligent centralized lubrication system is a high-tech product that fully integrates information technology, automatic control technology and existing lubrication technology. It has outstanding advantages in design ideas, system principles, system structure and hardware configuration, and completely replaces the traditional single-line and double-line lubrication systems. Compared with the general centralized lubrication system for dry oil, the intelligent centralized lubrication system for dry oil has the advantages of multi-point random combination quantitative oil supply, single point single control oil supply, intelligent monitoring, remote centralized management, energy saving and environmental protection.

With the development of industry, more and more enterprises need to use lubrication equipment, because in order to save costs, enterprises must extend the service life of machinery and lubrication. At present, there are about 200 domestic lubrication equipment manufacturers, and the largest lubrication equipment portal is China Lubrication Equipment Network.
