U.LUBE Bearing Grease: solving the loss problem of grease in roller presses, reducing costs and increasing efficiency for enterprises
In modern industrial production, roller press as the core equipment of cement plant, its performance stability directly affects the efficiency and quality of the whole production process. A cement plant uses a 160-140 type roller press produced by Hefei Institute, whose lubrication of the roller bearings adopts an automatic intelligent lubrication device to supply oil accurately, and the use of a certain brand of lubricant is prone to signs of lubricant loss in high temperature environments, and the cost of the oil is high.
Lubrication Challenges and Solutions
In response to the lubrication challenges posed by high temperatures, the U.Lube team upgraded the lubrication of the plant's roller presses with the introduction of U.LUBE ET RP 1500 Heavy Duty High Performance Bearing Grease. This change was not only aimed at solving the problem of oil loss, but also at maximizing cost-effectiveness in order to improve the overall economic efficiency.
In the face of severe working conditions, U.LUBE ET RP 1500 bearing grease not only has excellent water resistance and impact resistance, but also maintains stable lubrication under low-speed, shock and vibration conditions, significantly reducing equipment wear and prolonging the service life of bearings. It is specially designed for large-scale equipments in cement, mining, steel, electric power, chemical industry, paper making and other industries, such as roller press, crusher, dryer, granulator, excavator, etc., to ensure their smooth operation under harsh conditions and provide strong protection for the operation of machinery under working condition of high load and high temperature.
Effectiveness of Roller Press Bearing Lubrication Upgrade
After two months of field tests, the owner is satisfied with the lubrication effect of U.LUBE ET RP 1500 bearing grease. The roller press runs smoothly and the bearings are well lubricated. All performance indicators are in ideal condition. Specifically:
1. daily monitoring and regular service infrared thermal images show that the bearing temperature and working pressure are maintained within the normal range without any high temperature alarms or abnormal conditions of equipment tripping;
2. the roller press bearing lubricant has not become dry and hard, and has maintained its original performance;
3. the maintenance workload of the equipment has been greatly reduced, effectively relieving the workload of the maintenance personnel.
▲No oil loss in roller press bearings, no drying and hardening of the oil
▲The infrared thermal image shows that the bearing temperature has been maintained well without any abnormality.
Summary
By recording and analyzing the operating data of the roller press bearings, the U.LUBE team found that under the same lubrication conditions, U.LUBE ET RP 1500 High Load Bearing Grease was able to provide good lubrication for the roller presses in the cement plant. After a long time of high temperature test, the lubricant showed excellent stability and lubrication performance, effectively preventing abnormal wear of bearings, solving the original problem of oil loss of roller press bearings, significantly reducing the workload of the enterprise equipment maintenance, while reducing the procurement cost compared to the original use of the product for the production of the enterprise to achieve cost reduction and efficiency.
