Fluids

In general manufacturing, such as plastics, steel and car part production, lubrication is often dismissed as a routine maintenance task. Correct lubrication plays a vital role keeping precision machine tools producing on-spec finished goods. Inline sensors will detect changes immediately to reduce component rework and maintain surface finish.

In these exceptionally harsh environments, where dirt, water and wear metal can mix like a grinding compound, equipment is expected to work continuously. Ensuring the lube oil, grease and hydraulic fluid is getting where it is needed and it is protecting the moving parts is critical. FluidTek offer a range of inline and portable sensors with various methods of data transmission so that you stay in control of your business.

The high organic content in process water in the pulp & paper industry allows microorganisms to grow rapidly, which can negatively impact paper quality. Fluidtek provides advanced solutions for monitoring the total microorganism population and stress levels in high-solids process fluids—ideal for demanding environments such as the pulp and paper industry.

Operating in a marine environment comes with a unique set of challenges—saltwater exposure, extreme weather conditions, and continuous mechanical stress. The lube oils, grease and hydraulic fluids are put to the test. Systems that report on how the machinery is performing ensure the ship mechanical components get you from A to B, without incident.

As the industry moves toward renewable energy and high-efficiency infrastructure, lubrication performance requirements have become significantly more demanding. To manage these critical operating conditions, organizations must adopt sophisticated lubrication monitoring and control to support comprehensive maintenance strategies that minimise unplanned downtime.
