Recycling companies face numerous challenges today, including price fluctuations, changing market demands, and short contract periods with buyers of recycled products. To operate profitably, it is crucial to prevent equipment failures that can cause unscheduled downtimes, making equipment maintenance and lubrication even more critical.

Our Commitment to the Recycling Industry

Lubrication Technologies, Inc. (LTI) understands that safety and efficiency are paramount in the recycling industry. Our goal is to help your operation crew maximize productivity, reduce maintenance costs, and provide a safe working environment. Our comprehensive approach includes not only advanced lubrication systems but also high-performance lubricants, oil analysis services, and tailored maintenance programs.

Automatic Lubrication Systems

Using automatic lubricators is ideal for hard-to-reach lubrication points. These systems automatically and reliably lubricate exposed lubrication points, eliminating the need for periodic manual lubrication with a grease gun. When lubricators are installed, workers spend less time in danger zones, reducing exposure to noise, dust, and the danger of rotating machine parts, thereby increasing workplace safety.

High-Performance Lubricants

Our high-performance lubricants from Lubrication Engineers are specially formulated to withstand the harsh conditions found in recycling plants. They ensure optimal performance and protection for a wide range of equipment, including roller bearings, sliding bearings, guides, granulators, vibrating screens, air separators, sorters, presses, shredders, and conveyors.

Oil Analysis Services

Our oil analysis services monitor the health of your machinery, allowing for proactive maintenance and early detection of potential issues. This prevents costly repairs and downtime, ensuring your equipment runs smoothly and efficiently.

Customized Maintenance Programs

Tailored maintenance programs encompass lubrication management, routine inspections, and continuous monitoring to ensure your equipment operates reliably and efficiently. By reducing maintenance needs and downtimes, we help lower overall operational costs.

Key Applications and Equipment We Service in the Recycling Industry

Machinery in recycling plants requires regular lubrication for smooth and efficient operation. LTI works closely with recycling partners to ensure their lubrication needs are met. We have extensive experience and knowledge in installing Automatic Lubrication Systems for recycling businesses, helping to protect their equipment.

The installation of lubricators significantly extends the service life of components by lubricating key points for roller bearings and sliding bearings/guides on hammer/impact mills, granulators, vibrating screens, air separators, sorters, winnowing machines, presses, shredders, ventilation fans, combustion fans, electric motors, washers, fans, and conveyors.

Common Challenges and Our Solutions in the Recycling Industry

In recycling factories where dust and dirt are prevalent, regular lubrication is essential. Badly lubricated components can be quickly damaged and require replacement, leading to production interruptions and higher costs. Our automatic lubrication systems ensure that machinery components are consistently and adequately lubricated, minimizing wear and extending their operational life.
