Automatic Greasing System

General information
1.1
Introduction
With an automatic greasing system of
Groeneveld
all grease points of a vehicle or machine are
lubricated automatically at the correct moment and with the correct amount of grease. Because
greasing takes places while the vehicle or machine is in operation, the applied grease is spread
optimally over the whole surface to be greased. The greasing system requires no user intervention
to operate, apart from periodically replacing the grease in its reservoir.
Groeneveld’s
automatic greasing systems are designed with the utmost care and tested rigorously.
This guarantees an extended operational life and error-free operation, even under the most
extreme operating conditions.
Proper installation, using the correct type of grease, and periodic checks are prerequisites for the
continual hassle-free operation of the system. The periodic checks, which take little time and effort,
can be performed during the normal maintenance of the vehicle or machine (during oil-
replacement, for instance). Careful selection of construction materials, makes the greasing system
itself nearly maintenance-free.

The Twin automatic greasing system
Groeneveld
has developed a double-line automatic greasing system especially for the use of NLGI
class-2 grease. The Twin system ensures that all the disadvantages of the systems currently available
for class-2 grease are eliminated.
The Twin system has all advantages of the
Groeneveld
single-line systems. This means, for instance,
that the system is expandible trouble-free with grease points that are installed afterwards (extra
machine equipment).
The advantages of the Twin system:
•
ingenuous and fast assembly;
•
modular expansion possible;
•
parts of the system can (temporarily) be coupled or uncoupled;
•
clear malfunction reports;
•
registration of possible malfunctions;
•
the grease dosage can easily be adjusted per greasing point to the needs of that particular
greasing point;
•
the grease dosage per greasing point remains constant under all circumstances.
ATTENTION
The automatic greasing system reduces the time and effort spent on manual greasing significantly.
However, do not forget that there may be grease points that are not served by the greasing system
and must still be greased by hand.
