Anyone who some experience with central lubrication system?
It is an old machine. There is a bowl filled with grease connected to a row of
pneumatic valves so I guess the grease is supposed to enter this block. There
is also plenty of tubes connected to blocks on the sliding surfaces and I could
see there are grease on the sliding surfaces. It all seems to be driven by
pneumatic and I have connected compressed air. One of the valves are marked
lubrication and I have tried to switch this but nothing seems to happen.
Bijur central lube systems use way oil, not grease. Grease takes a lot
of pressure to send through thin tubes. Bijur and similar central lube
systems have metering orifices that get clogged when the system sits for
a long time. I have not had any luck cleaning them. Direct from Bijur,
they are surprisingly inexpensive. If this is truly designed for
grease, then I really don't know anything about it.
