Progressive lubrication is a key solution where metered outlets, compact layouts and system monitoring are required for grease or oil delivery.
Progressive systems split lubricant through a distributor in a defined sequence, which supports compact layouts and reliable functional checking.
Highly relevant in production machinery, material handling and mobile equipment thanks to the defined outlet sequence.
Points, metering volumes, line lengths, lubricant and monitoring strategy influence distributor layout and pump sizing.
Compact and self-monitoring, it suits the great majority of machines — from machine tools and packaging lines to construction and agricultural equipment.
Progressive pages connect directly to grease pumps and lubrication pumps.
A progressive distributor meters the lubricant volumetrically and delivers it positively, one point after another in a fixed sequence.
The distributor meters the lubricant volumetrically and delivers it positively, one point after another.
Only when a piston completes its stroke does it release the next, so every point receives an exactly defined quantity per cycle.
If a point or line is blocked the whole distributor stops, and a connected cycle sensor registers it at once.
Modular metering with interchangeable dosing elements, fed by an electric, pneumatic or grease pump.
Compared with a dual-line system, reserved for very large plants, a progressive system is the natural choice for compact and medium-sized networks.
Compare with dual-line and single-line lubrication.
The most widely used metering method, suited to machine tools, packaging lines, construction and agricultural equipment.
Pump, distributor layout, monitoring and service access must work together for a reliable installation.
