In metalworking and machine building, lubrication decides availability, tool life and quality. Automatic lubrication serves guides, bearings, spindles and gears evenly and on demand, while minimum quantity lubrication at the tool is used for cutting. The answers below summarise the most common questions about lubrication methods, system selection and maintenance in the metal industry, and link to the components that solve each task.
The range of tasks runs from lubricating guides and bearings, through circulating-oil lubrication of gearboxes, to process-side minimum quantity lubrication. Each has its own requirements for medium, dosing and cleanliness — reproducible dosing across many points, protection from abrasive wear, and the choice between full lubrication and MQL.
Most metalworking systems combine a progressive distributor and an electric or barrel pump for central oil or grease lubrication, a MAGNOM® filter for clean oil, and MQL systems at the tool for cutting. Cycle sensors and a control unit add monitoring so every cycle is confirmed.
Automatic systems run largely unattended; routine care is limited to refilling, checking the cycle and pressure signals and keeping filters and lines clear of chips and coolant. Documented cycles let deviations be caught early and service planned rather than forced.
A metalworking system commonly serves guides and ball screws, spindle and motor bearings, swivel axes and enclosed gearboxes, plus the tool itself in cutting. Each point has its own quantity and interval needs, which a progressive distributor maps by fitting the right dosing element to each outlet. The choice of oil or grease, full lubrication or MQL, and the level of monitoring all follow from the points and the process — which is what the questions below address.
