Assembly Lines

Assembly lines

Castrol’s Liquid Engineers know that the most critical applications in assembly lines are the conveyor chains and their gearboxes, and that one of the main factors affecting plant efficiency is machinery downtime.

 

Minimizing this downtime and unplanned maintenance is the priority of production management, which is why our Liquid Engineers recommend using planned lubrication scheduling and predictive machine condition monitoring regimes, along with the right lubricants, to help to increase uptime.

Paint Shop

Castrol’s Liquid Engineers have designed specific lubricants to help address the issues that face the production management of a paint line.

We know that any lubricants used must be compatible with the paint fluids, otherwise you can experience poor paint adherence to the metal surface. This in turn can lead to loss of production and vehicles requiring re-finish.

 

Our experts recognize that this issue needs to be confronted prior to a lubricant being used for any application in the paint shop. Moreover, the OEMs demand that the products undergo a formal in-house testing and approval procedure prior to being used.
