HIGH-PERFORMANCE LUBRICANTS FOR THE MOST DEMANDING APPLICATIONS

Expertise in Open Gear lubricants

With increasing size, the demands on the lubrication of Open Gears also increase. Wherever high transmission of forces at low sliding speeds is required, we do everything we can to reduce the wear on your technology to a minimum, thus maximising the reliability and safety of your equipment. Together with gear and machinery manufacturers, we develop innovative adhesive lubricants for Open Gears in kilns and mills.

We always strive for the most applicationspecific solutions – and thus achieve running times of 40 years and more.

FUCHS in motion – your realiable partner in Open Gear lubrication

Large Open Gear drives constitute a mechanical method of transmitting movement and force. The level of success ultimately achieved does not only depend on the gear design and materials used but also on the lubricant quality, volume of lubricant and the means of application. This is particularly true for large, low-speed Open Gear drives where high torques are transmitted.

Open Gears transmit extreme forces. Their service life is subject to several factors, one of them being the lubricants used. FUCHS offers the ideal lubricant range for this heavy-duty application. Our Multi-Phase-Lubrication is the key to the efficiency and long life of your Open Gear.

MULTI-PHASE-LUBRICATION (MPL)

Three lubrication steps to ensure a long service life for the Open Gear

FUCHS MULTI-PHASE-LUBRICATION is a sophisticated system for optimum lubrication and a long lifetime. Once the drive is precisely aligned, the selection of the correct lubricant is the next step in achieving a long service life.

The most reliable method

FUCHS MULTI-PHASE-LUBRICATION (M-P-L) is the most reliable method of averting serious mistakes. The use of M-P-L is essential with new gears but it is also helpful after a repair of damaged gear tooth flanks or at any time when the pinion or girth gear is changed.

FUCHS M-P-L consists primarily of three components: priming, running-in and operating lubricants.

These special M-P-L lubricants are the result of many years of research, and have proved themselves in practical applications all over the world.

PRIMING

Priming lubricants prevent damage during initial operation and are manually applied to the clean teeth of a new or repaired gear. After the first rotations using an auxiliary drive the gear will display the actual contact pattern. Any corrections needed will be shown and can be implemented

RUNNING-IN

Running-in is effected by our RN range of CEPLATTYN. Working tooth flanks are smoothed in this process, which is considered successful as soon as a load-carrying proportion of at least 80% has been achieved.

OPERATIONAL LUBRICATION

Operational lubrication starts at the end of the running-in process. It is not only subject to the condition and use of the drive but also to environmental influences.
