Functional description
The automatic lubrication system is a lubrication system for Güdel compo-
nents. The FlexxPump feeds the lubricant from the cartridge into the lines.
Depending on the design, the lubricant is distributed through splitters, com-
bined through Y-segments, or distributed directly to the lubrication area.
Rack and pinions are lubricated by lubricating pinions; guideways are lubri-
cated by lubricating elements.
The FlexxPump outputs a signal in case of overpressure, if the cartridge is
empty and for each piston stroke. This makes it possible to process such in-
formation further.
