Paper Industry

Speciality lubricants for paper processing application

The transformation of pulp to bales of paper is an intricate mechanical and chemical process with sophisticated machines at its core. The objective of every Maintenance team would be to run the integrated units seamlessly without any breakdowns and surpass production targets.

An important link in the continuous working of these machines is optimal lubrication. Lubrication requirements for machinery involved in various processes are diverse. Be it the chipping or the severe pulping and refining process to the pressing and drying process, the moving machine parts are subjected to heavy loads, seething temperatures, high speeds and often need to operate under wet, humid and dusty environments. The bearings and gears are always under the threat of severe wear and corrosion. To ensure efficient production process, it is imperative that the perfect lubricant is chosen.
