Comparison: Manual / Automatic Lubrication Manual lubrication perma lubrication > From low-cost to high-tech: Products that meet every challenge > from simple low-cost units to technically superior systems > programmable discharge periods from 1 day to 24 months > from single-point systems to multi-point systems that lubricate up to 600 lube-points > different cartridge sizes and all types of lubricants > from self-contained systems to PLC controlled systems Advantages at a glance Less maintenance time, lower costs, increased safety > Economical aspects perma reduces costs by up to 25 % perma automatic lubrication systems provide lubrication while the machine is running. Continuous maintenance-free lubrication with consistently high quality lubricants can extend equipment service life and increases equipment availability. A permanent supply of fresh lubricant to the lubrication point also results in lower friction and reduced energy costs. > Technical aspects perma prevents up to 55 % of roller bearing failures Automatic lubrication systems from perma guarantee reliable, clean and precise lubrication 24 hours, every day of the year. Equipment availability increases as wear reduces when fresh grease is added in small amounts at short time intervals. > Safety aspects perma reduces the risk of accidents by up to 90% Extended preventive maintenance schedules reduce the need for frequent manual lubrication runs. Workplace accidents are significantly reduced, especially at difficult to access lubrication points.
