SKF dry lubrication safely boosts line efficiency

SKF's latest Vogel dry lubrication safely and cost-effectively optimises the efficiency of food and drink production lines.

A central system distributes a dry film of lubricant, which minimises lubricant consumption and eliminates the cost and operational implications of using water-based lubricants.

Effective lubrication is vital to the productivity of food and beverage production lines but manual lubrication and conventional automated systems can escalate operational costs, contaminate products and present a hazard to line operators.

In comparison, the latest Vogel dry-lubrication systems limit the moisture present on the production line.

This optimises line efficiency and ensures product quality, while eliminating the risk of operator slippages and complying with strict health and safety standards.

Using dry lubrication prevents food and beverage products becoming contaminated by foreign bodies, which can be carried in conventional lubricants.

Additionally, by minimising maintenance requirements and the volume of lubricant needed, automated dry-lubrication systems can help food and beverage processing and packaging companies keep waste and operating costs down.

SKF's range of lubricants can further increase the versatility and performance of Vogel centralised lubrication systems.
