Lincoln Industrial offers acomplete line of automatedlubrication systems.While bearings are working, our automated systems lubricate them atfrequent predetermined intervals with measured amounts of lubricant.Depending on the application, these systems can be centralized, withlarge-capacity lubricant containers, they can lubricate a smaller area ina plant, or they can ensure the smooth performance of a single valuablemachine. With our BearingSaver program, we find the best automatedsolution for you from our wide range of systems for grease, fluid grease,or oil.Two-line SystemsOur Helios ® and Duo-Matic two-line lubrication systems are speciallydesigned for larger applications and the high-viscosity lubricants commonlyfound in steel mills, cement plants, paper mills and processingplants. The system distributes lubricant over greater distances using twolines to deliver grease alternately to metering devices.Centro-Matic ®Our single-line system, Centro-Matic, lubricates many points simultaneously.By choosing the correct injector for each lubrication point andmaking simple adjustments, it always dispenses the exact amount oflubricant needed. And if you add a piece of machinery, the system iseasily expanded with additional injectors. System Sentry electronicmonitoring capabilities allow for total control at the lubrication point.Centro-Matic configurations are also available for chain-lubricationapplications.Modular Lube ®Progressive plunger systems lubricate many points, one after another.A pump carries grease to the lubricating point via progressive meteringvalves. Modular Lube valves are custom-built for each series of lubricationpoints and can be serviced without disturbing the primary installation.And to further protect your expensive equipment, a system equippedwith the proper accessories can also detect lubricant blockage.Quicklub ®Quicklub is a progressive plunger system utilizing standard meteringvalves. Effective for use with smaller lubrication points, this simplifieddesign saves money in many manufacturing applications, as well asfor over-the-road trucks and off-road construction equipment. And bycombining Quicklub metering valves with two-line systems or Centro-Matic, you can get the larger capacity you need at an economical cost.Application specialists make sure our systems are installedcorrectly and our technicians are properly trained because ourcustomers deserve the very best value for their investment.
