Robots require the right lubrication in every moving joint, which provides wear protection for joints, bearings, sliders, chains
With Industry 4.0, the automation of manufacturing processes continues to advance at pace. Industrial robots work together seamlessly on fully automated production lines. Replacing human labor in monotonous or unsafe manufacturing processes with robots increases production, improves product quality and lowers production costs. So it is no wonder that the number of industrial robots worldwide continues to rapidly increase.
If one of them comes to a standstill, however, the production chain is interrupted and the moment that every company dreads becomes a reality: unscheduled downtime due to robot failures. Downtime is the challenge of automated manufacturing processes. If the production line is optimally configured, maintained and lubricated, it performs its work smoothly, with minimal wear and without breakdowns.
Regular, generally annual, maintenance is therefore indispensable. It is essential to check all moving parts and replace them as necessary, as well as to check the lubrication.
