Following a successful trial of Klubersynth in Elevator gearboxes at a major brewery, further trials on their conveyor gearboxes led to energy savings approaching GBP100k per annum
The gearboxes were old, and prone to leaks.
Kluber were asked to look at the problem and recommend a product to overcome the problems being encountered.
After investigation the recommendation from Kluber was to use Klubersynth UH1 14-1600.
This product enabled the company to fulfil the food grade requirements, upgrade to a superior product and eliminate leaks.
Since changing over to the Klubersynth UH1 14-1600 there have been no reported problems with these gearboxes: the downtime they were experiencing has been eliminated.
Following this success, the customer asked Kluber to look at other areas of his production and a lubrication proposal was submitted for the lubrication of gearboxes, bearings, chains, airlines and hydraulics.
The customer now uses 8 Kluber Special Food Grade Lubricants, mainly on the manufacture of a prominent brand of segmented chocolate product. Request a free brochure from Kluber Lubrication GB ...
