Lubricant metering devices Lubricant metering devices deliver preset lubricant dosage to lubrication point or measure lubricant out to lubrication points over a specified period of time. Single-line metering devices Dual-line metering devices Progressive metering devices Flow limiters Flow meters Metering units Metering valves Mixing valves Overview of metering devices for different lubrication systems Single-line metering
Minimal quantity lubrication units Using MQL eliminates the need for complicated wet machining Principle of SKF LubriLean MQL systems The principle is simple: The lubricant is applied to the cutting edge of the tool as an aerosol in the exact amount required. The lubrication consumption using MQL is measured in millilitres per hour instead of
Lubrication pumps and pumping units Lubrication pumps feed lubricant from the lubricant reservoir into the tubing system of the centralized lubrication system. The manometric pressure has to be high enough to compensate for pressure drops in the tubing, components (filters, valves, distributors) and friction points. Differentiation criteria: type of lubrication system principle of operation type
Lubrication system components SKF and Lincoln automatic centralized lubrication systems perform the task of supplying individual lube points or group of points with varying amounts of exactly metered lubricant from one central location. Care taken during the installation, start-up and maintenance of the central lubrication system, will help to enhance the operating readiness and life

Oil and Air lubrication systems SKF Oil+Air SKF Oil+Air lubrication systems System description: In oil+air lubrication, a quantity of oil metered volumetrically by a pump or distributor is pulled apart by a continuous air flow in a tube and carried along the tube wall in the direction of compressed-air flow. The quantity of oil is
Oil circulation lubrication systems SKF CircOil SKF Circulating oil lubrication system SKF CircOil systems are designed primarily for oil circulation lubrication to lubricate as well as cool highly stressed bearings in nearly every size of machine. Additionally, the returning oil removes and filters out wear particles from friction points and prevents corrosion damage by removing
Single-line lubrication systems for oil, fluid grease and grease Regardless of the application, the principle of single-line lubrication remains the same: a central pump station automatically delivers lubricant through a single supply line to the lubricant metering device. Each metering device serves only one lubrication point and may be adjusted to deliver the precise amount
