Introduction

There are applications:

The scope of these technologies is wide. Environmental and productivity requirements, labour regulations require more and more automation of manual lubrication or spraying for a wide variety of processes.

It is impossible to list and sort all applications.

What can be done by microlubrication?

Microlubrication allows to put a precise quantity of liquid at one or several places:

What can be done by spraying?

Spraying spreads liquids on surfaces.

General applications

Lubrication of mechanical components

Lubrication using:

Machining operations

The microlubrication is used for machining operations with adapted systems to lubricate tools:

The microlubrication with nozzles is often used for sawing, drilling, boring, milling, broaching, turning.

Lubrication and spraying are used to deposit anticorrosion products.

Assembly operations

Microlubrication and spraying are used:

Cutting and stamping operations

Microlubrication and spraying are used to deposit lubricant on metal sheets, precut sheets, or inside tools. The lubricant range is wide: evanescent oils, soluble oils, common oils, oils with additive, high viscosity oils.

Generally:

Drop by drop systems are also used in specific cases.

Forming operations

Microlubrication and spraying are used to lubricate:

Microlubrication and spraying are used for stripping and mould dressing products.

Applications in several business sectors

Water, ink, glue, perfumes, most liquid products may be deposit or sprayed.

Microlubrication and spraying may be used in food processing industry, chemical industry, petroleum industry, pharmaceutic industry, ...
