Why OilLess?
Omitting the working process of a lubricator, oil filler, and oil channel
A lubricator consists of various parts such as grease nipple, oil pump, oil tank, and pipes. Besides these, it costs extra to install these parts for a more complex assembly process. Add to it, the expense and labour involved in the working of an oil-filling opening on the shaft, to be directed to the bearing and the working of an oil channel. Reduction in the costs can be achieved to eliminate the above process by using OilLess Bearings.
Saving running cost
A bearing requiring supply of small amounts of lubricants does not pose much of a problem, but for a plant with a lot of machinery vast quantities of lubricants used annually can be a headache.
OilLess Bearings help reduce running cost significantly by savings in lubricants consumption and maintenance of the equipment.
Saving maintenance cost
At a construction site, where dozens of hydraulic backhoes are in use, which need to be lubricated for 21 elements on each machine, the background costs for ensuring oil-filling personnel, watching oiling negligence, and inspecting the lubricator are enormous.
OilLess Bearings provides simplified maintenance or eliminates maintenance altogether in the cases described above. Also, it efficiently helps prevent troubles including a defective lubricator or a clogged oiling pipe caused by inappropriate lubrication.
Reducing costs in design
Designing with OilLess Bearings in mind (doing away with lubricators, piping, and control of lubrication) simplifies design structure and shortens design time. It enables compact designing in space saved by an omitted lubricating system. In addition, by using OilLess Bearings, it achieves downsizing of not only the bearing itself, but the housing and the shaft as well, resulting in overall miniaturization of the machine and reduced material costs. Beside these merits, OilLess Bearings with excellent wear resistance provides other advantages such as assuring long-term machine accuracy, ensuring reliability, and saving installation and integration time.
Retrieving lubricants and conserving the environment
Discharged oil during lubrication contaminates the working environment and water quality. Due to today’s strict reinforcement of laws for pollution and effluent control, the recurring costs for installing and running oil-retrieval equipments are hard-to-ignore add-ons to the production cost. OilLess Bearings not only helps protect the environment from the contamination but also reduces costs for retrieving waste oil.
