19+ Lubrication Points Reliably Supplied
Excavators perform demanding tasks every day, such as loosening, lifting, breaking, and loading soil, rock, or construction debris. To withstand these stresses over the long term, proper lubrication is essential. Joints, pins, and bearings are in constant motion and require a constant supply of lubricant to prevent friction and premature wear.
Especially during continuous operation, it is crucial that all relevant points are regularly lubricated – not only to ensure proper function, but also to protect against corrosion, especially in the presence of moisture, dirt, or temperature fluctuations.
Reduce Maintenance, Increase Operational Reliability
An automatic central lubrication system regularly supplies all lubrication points – reliably, precisely, and even during ongoing operation. Compared to manual lubrication, most maintenance work is eliminated. At the same time, operational reliability increases: downtimes due to dry running or seized components can be effectively avoided.
An additional advantage: The precise dosing of the lubricant not only optimizes consumption but also minimizes environmental impact. Investing in a central lubrication system quickly pays for itself – especially for frequently used machines with multiple lubrication points.
