Applications

Steel & Metal

Memolub provides industry-leading single- and multi-point automatic lubrication systems, setting the benchmark for electro-mechanical lubricators in the steel industry. Engineered for reliable performance on rolling mills, conveyors, and continuous casting equipment operating under extreme heat and heavy mechanical loads, Memolub delivers precise, consistent lubrication to maximize equipment uptime, reduce maintenance, and extend the service life of critical components exposed to scale, abrasive dust, and high temperatures. Built to perform reliably in continuous, high-load operations and hard-to-reach or hazardous locations, Memolub helps ensure smooth, efficient, and uninterrupted operation across a wide range of steel manufacturing applications.

Your equipment challenges.

Steel manufacturing demands unparalleled durability from equipment, operating under extreme heat, heavy mechanical loads, and constant exposure to scale, dust, and abrasive particles. The steel industry, in particular, presents significant challenges for both workers and machines. Dispersed equipment across large mill sites, tight staffing, harsh ambient conditions, and cost pressures continuously challenge plant operators and maintenance teams. These demanding environments result in hard-to-reach and dangerous lubrication points, extreme operating conditions (including high temperatures, heavy shock loads, abrasive dust, and vibration), and high personnel costs due to complex and widely dispersed machinery setups. Inadequate lubrication under these conditions can lead to several detrimental consequences.

EQUIPMENT
AVAILABILITY

Steel production runs on tight margins where every hour of uptime matters. Automatic lubricators keep critical components consistently protected, maximising availability and reducing unplanned failures.

PREDICTABLE
MAINTENANCE

Inconsistent manual greasing schedules make maintenance planning unreliable and reactive. Automatic lubrication delivers grease at fixed, precise intervals, turning maintenance into a predictable and planned process.

COSTLY
DOWNTIME

Stopping rolling mills or casting lines for manual greasing disrupts continuous production and drives up losses. Automatic lubricators deliver grease while equipment keeps running, avoiding unplanned stoppages.

.

HIGH
SAFETY RISKS

Manual lubrication near hot, heavy, and moving steel processing equipment puts maintenance staff in direct danger. Automated systems remove the need for personnel to work near active hazards.

HARD-TO-REACH LUBE POINTS

Rolling mills, casting lines, and conveyors often place bearings in elevated, enclosed, or high-heat zones, making manual greasing slow and hazardous. Automatic lubricators reach these points reliably without exposing staff to risk.
