<p><span data-contrast="auto">When designing your bespoke system, we section the full packaging line into smaller zones determined by characteristics specific to that zone such as conveyor speed, package weight, number of packages, single track section, mass accumulation etc. As a result, lubricant dosage is optimized, enabling coefficient of friction to be controlled to ensure package stability with zero excess lubricant ending up on the packaging hall floor.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Our system is responsive to run signals making sure that static conveyors are not being lubricated.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto">Lubricant is secreted onto a soft, bristle brush causing the bristles to become coated in lube. This allows for an even distribution of lubricant across the entire conveyor belt and no excess ending up on the floor. Our brush assembly is designed with ease of servicing in mind.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto">Lubrication is also applied to the underside of the belt using application inserts. This reduces the coefficient of friction between the conveyor belt and the wear strip, reducing wear and tear of the belt. Additionally, it reduces the load on motors 'pulling' conveyors along which are weighed down with filled containers. This reduces motor energy usage, carbon emissions and motor trips which could lead to an unplanned shut-down.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto">We work with on-site technical teams to ensure a smooth installation and commissioning program that fits in with existing production schedules and minimizes disruption. Once up and running, your system is maintained by our experienced team of solutions providers who perform essential operating maintenance, such as replenishing lubricant volumes, measuring the coefficient of friction and adjusting dosage volumes. During their visits, they monitor product traffic behavior and production performance as a method of preventative maintenance, but in many instances prove to be an extra pair of eyes on large sections of conveyors that are regularly unmanned as a result of resource engineering pressures.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span></p>
