What is Precision Lubrication?

Precision lubrication in relation to equipment reliability of oil or grease lubricated components of rotating equipments involves using the right quality, type and quantity of lubricating agent, lubrication of the right component in the exact place and re-lubrication at the right intervals.

The most important goal of this procedure is to improve the reliability of machinery and the uptime by significantly reducing the rate of wear and tear of the components that are lubricated by the implementation of pre-calculated procedures and programs.

Precision lubrication is not a solution that’s one measure and fits all. You could have a particular bank of machines or asset class that will call for same quality, quantity and type of lubricants, but even within that bank of machines you will find subtle differences that may need change of lubricant or slightly different interval for re-lubrication. Failure to notice these differences can easily spoil the process, which would reduce the life of each component that has been inadequately lubricated.

For instance, the procedures and policy will be different for gearboxes as they will be for centrifugal pumps, electric motor and blowers. Also, when it comes to the pump asset class you may have a situation where a certain series of pumps or pump is exposed to extreme amounts of moisture and heat, because of which it would need a synthetic lubricant, hybrid desiccant breather and a more frequent lubrication interval. While on the other hand all the other pumps belonging to that family operate under normal temperatures and conditions, allowing you to use materials that are mineral based and a standard desiccant breather and a regular desiccant breather.


Applying the lubricating material at the right place is as important as applying the right amount of it. High precision cannot be achieved without Precision dispensing. Dispensed materials that do not reach the right place could potentially spoil the machinery and is certainly a waste of the material, which in the long term can raise the cost of maintenance. To achieve Precision dispensing, it is important to find the instruments (dispensing needles and dispensing nozzles) that will accurately dispense the right amount of required material to the right area. Precision lubrication is impossible to achieve without Precision dispensing.

What It Really Comes Down To

Precision lubrication is a well calculated procedure that has been designed by gathering data and evaluating every piece of equipment and its current operating demands, conditions and environments. This is usually done by a survey which is coupled with a plant wide assessment or equipment walk down. The data is then processed to get better understanding of the best procedure possible.

When this process is well designed and correctly implemented, it can drastically increase the reliability of equipments, overall profitability and significantly decrease expenses relating to maintenance by the elimination of inaccurate or unnecessary procedures and policies. Improper procedures can also increase the manual handling time of machineries due to longer downtimes and lack of reliable equipments. Precision lubrication is a must for the success of any workforce that handles rotational equipments.

How Are Precision Nozzles Used? Advancing the Science of Fluid Delivery

Subrex specialises in manufacturing dispensing nozzles that’s used to dispense materials that are thicker, with convenience and ease for industrial use. These nozzles can be used to dispense materials that cannot be distributed conventionally using regular dispensing tips due to higher level of resistance. This resistance is usually caused due to the variation in volume, which causes inaccurate dispensing as the reluctance in nozzles require external pressure, which results in variation.

STANDARD GAGE PRECISION NOZZLES
The most important and the only use of precision nozzle is to dispense variety of materials accurately. The tips of these dispensing nozzles are manufactured in such a way that whenever liquid is injected it's done with great accuracy. Highly precise injection is an important requirement for most industries especially those that assemble machinery. Too less or too much release can result in major malfunctioning of the machinery. The nozzles are made using a very unique technique which makes it capable of dispensing as per various requirements.

Nozzles made by Subrex are made out of high quality material that is not only capable of withstanding higher temperatures but is highly durable as well. These characteristics are a must for nozzles used in the industrial sector, as the materials dispensed or injected through them are generally at very high temperatures. Dispensing Nozzles that are made from low-quality materials usually break or bend while dispensing liquids with high temperature. Such instances can spoil the equipment and can also cause serious accidents.

The flowing of the materials depends on the specifics and design of the nozzle. The dispensing nozzles are made in such a way that they enhance the flow by tremendously reducing the impedance. Subrex dispensing nozzles also improve the accuracy and reduce if not completely eliminate the deviation of the flow of material and the user will not need to add pressure externally.

Precision nozzles are manufactured with different thickness and size. Thin wall nozzles are made using a technique called deep drawing. When it comes to accuracy they are spot on. Thin wall nozzles are made by materials that can stay intact even under high pressure, which is why they can avoid deformation during use. It is designed to be very sturdy and practical.

The conical design of the dispensing nozzle also has an important role to play. It provides control with dispensing. Control is essential to ensure the dispensing of only the required amount of liquid without the need of excessive external pressure. It also facilitates in clean breaking of liquids without leaving anything sticking to the nozzle. Various kinds of coverings are also offered for the nozzles. They protect the nozzle and also increase the precision with dispensing. The covers should be used to cover the nozzle after it has dispensed high strength adhesive. Some nozzles do not come with premade covers but the covers for such Dispensing nozzles can be custom-made as per the usage of the nozzle if required.
