Less downtime, more performance.
With automatic lubrication systems from DropsA you increase your production performance, reduce energy consumption and reduce maintenance costs - a real efficiency booster for every food plant.
Automatic relubrication
Optimal lubrication without interruption – constant, as needed and time-saving.
Less production downtime
Continuous supply of lubricants reduces failures due to friction and wear.
Resource-saving
Lower consumption of fat and oil thanks to precise dosage using DropsA systems.
Optimized process control
Integration into existing controls for maximum transparency and efficiency.
In food production, efficiency and hygiene have to go together. Automatic lubrication provides a constant, demand-based supply to the lubrication points, reduces downtime from friction and wear, and at the same time lowers the consumption of grease and oil. Because many plants run multiple shifts and under strict hygiene requirements, planned, documented lubrication is a genuine efficiency lever — without any compromise on food safety.
Efficiency in sensitive production environments means precise dosing instead of generous lubrication, food-grade (H1) media and closed systems that exclude contamination. Components must survive frequent cleaning, moisture and temperature changes, and the dosing must stay accurate so that neither under-lubrication (wear) nor over-lubrication (contamination and waste) occurs.
An efficient, hygienic layout meters a food-grade grease through a closed progressive distributor, so each point receives exactly the right amount with no excess to clean away. For clean, low-consumption operation on tools and packaging, air-oil lubrication such as H1 applies a minimal film. Precise, contained dosing is what makes the system both efficient and hygienic at once.
An efficient food-industry system stays efficient only if it is kept clean and correctly dosed. Routine care — refilling with approved media, checking the dosing and signals, confirming cleanliness through washdowns — is light, and the documented cycles make it easy to verify both efficiency and compliance. Catching a dosing drift early prevents the waste and contamination risk that erode the gains.
In food plants the efficiency case is always bounded by hygiene, and the two reinforce each other when the system is designed well. Precise, contained dosing uses less lubricant and leaves no excess to clean away, so cleaning is faster and downtime shorter. Documented cycles let the dosing be optimised point by point and verified during audits, turning compliance work into a by-product of normal operation rather than an extra task. Because the components are closed and corrosion-resistant, washdowns do not interrupt the lubrication, and the lubrication does not slow the washdowns — so availability stays high across multiple shifts without any compromise on food safety.
It provides a constant, demand-based supply, reduces downtime from friction and wear, and lowers grease and oil consumption — without compromising food safety.
Precise dosing means less excess lubricant to clean away, so the system is both more efficient and more hygienic at the same time.
It avoids both under-lubrication (wear and downtime) and over-lubrication (waste and contamination), which is critical in food environments.
Food-grade grease metered by a closed progressive distributor, with air-oil H1 lubrication for clean operation on tools and packaging.
By light routine maintenance and documented cycles, so a dosing drift is caught before it causes waste or contamination.
