SKF Progressive lubrication systems
We are your supplier for progressive lubrication systems by the company SKF. We supply entire systems as well as the respective components and spare parts.
Functionality of progressive lubrication systems:
The central lubrication pump (max. 550 bar) pumps the lubricant to one or several main metering devices. The main metering devices apportion the lubricant in the correct ratio for the auxiliary metering devices which then distribute the correct specified quantity of grease to the consumers. This system allows up to 150 lubrication points with a distance of up to 15 meters (grease) / 100 meters (oil) to be lubricated precisely. The pump is controlled by an electronic control unit (pause and lubrication time).
The progressive central lubrication systems control and distribute the lubricant continuously via a follower piston control unit.

Always up to date
Whether it be products or services – there is a lot to discover in our comprehensive offering. If you would like to find out more about a certain topic, you will find a constantly updated selection of additional links, downloads and videos in our info centre. This way you can stay up-to-date and give yourself a head start with the latest know-how.
The follower piston control unit allows monitoring with a pressure control valve. If a lubrication point does not take any more lubricant, the follower piston control is interrupted and the metering device is blocked. The lubricant exits from the pressure control valve.
A proximity switch on the metering device allows additional surveillance.
The main application fields for progressive central lubrication systems are presses, plastic processing machines, print and paper processing machines, packaging and textile machines, as well as wood and metalworking machines.
