High Speed Combers

BECHEM recommends the Berusynth GP range of synthetic oils for the application of comber gear box that provides high strength film for contact surfaces and does not rupture under high loads.

The comber gear box operates under high specific loads with various combinations like spur, helical, double helical gears etc. Temperature rise, gear wear out due to inadequate lubrication are high possibilities during regular operation. The lubricant plays a critical role in ensuring breakdown free operation of the comber gear box.

The comber gear oil should possess superior anti wear additives to protect the gear teeth that operate under high loads. In order to maintain the necessary lubrication film between contact partners at higher temperatures, the lubricant should have good viscosity index. Metallurgy of the gear box set up is diverse with presence of phosphor bronze, steel and white metal bushes, the lubricant should be compatible with these metal pairings. The lubricant should also be able to inert to possible entry of cotton fluff and inhibit foam formation.

Lubricant for high speed combers

Berusynth GP 150

Berusynth GP 150 is high performance synthetic gear and circulation oil with EP additives for gearboxes running under high mechanical or thermal loads. Possessing excellent oxidation stability and shear resistance, extended oil changing intervals can be achieved with Berusynth GP 150.

This synthetic lubricant with high viscosity index is recommended for spur, conical and worm gears used in textile mills, winches, cranes and conveyors. With wide service temperature range, Berusynth GP 150 can be used in gear boxes and circulation systems that operate continuously in temperatures above 100˚C as well as mechanisms that operate in freezing conditions. Also, Berusynth GP 150 does not react with mineral oil resistant seal material or machine paints.

Applications: The product is recommended for application in textile industry in Comber headstock gearbox as well as Dobby gearbox of loom. ‘Berusynth GP 150’ is approved by ‘M/s. LMW’ for high speed motors.
