At Industrial Autolube, we have developed lubrication systems for [Sawguide Lubrication,](https://autolube.ca/sawguide-lubrication?hsLang=en) providing precise control and feedback on water and oil flow to maintain the exact water-to-oil ratio you require. Our newly developed Sawguide Pucks utilize a low-friction polymer to support the saw, eliminating the need for Babbitt. This innovation enables continuous multi-shift operation without the frequent replacement of Babbitt pads. This level of control enables the reduction of oil and water consumption, leading to lower operational costs, and less downtime from unscheduled saw changes. ### High Speed Arbor Bearings Efficient lubrication is critical for high-speed arbor bearings to ensure optimal performance, longevity, and operational safety. Selecting the right lubricant and delivery system minimizes wear, reduces heat generation, and prevents premature failure—especially under the extreme conditions encountered in high-speed applications. We have engineered specialized lubrication systems tailored for high-speed arbors in both sawing and planing operations, utilizing our advanced [**VIP 4 Air** and **VIP 4.0** systems.](https://autolube.ca/high-speed-bearings?hsLang=en) ![PXL_20250713_212225229](https://autolube.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/PXL_20250713_212225229.jpg?width=250&height=331&name=PXL_20250713_212225229.jpg "PXL_20250713_212225229") ![Felt App](https://autolube.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Felt%20App.jpg?width=250&height=444&name=Felt%20App.jpg "Felt App") ### Chain Lubrication **Industrial Autolube’s automated lubrication systems** deliver lubricant precisely where it’s needed: **inside the chain, directly on the pin, and within the center links**. Our systems are engineered to **overcome the chain’s operating velocity**, ensuring the lubricant penetrates critical areas instead of bouncing off. This results in significantly **reduced lubricant consumption, less downtime, and lower overall operating costs**. **Application-Specific Solutions Include:** - **Chain Applicators** for **Bin Sorters** and **Transfer Decks** - A superior alternative to traditional drip oiling, these applicators deliver lubricant exactly where it’s needed—on the chain, not around it. - [Precision Applicators for Sharp Chain](https://autolube.ca/sharp-chain?hsLang=en) **Infeeds and Outfeeds** – Specifically designed to target the pins and links, ensuring maximum protection and performance under demanding conditions.   ### Kilns Industrial Autolube offers solutions specifically engineered for high-temperature kiln environments, focusing on kiln cart bushings and kiln fan bearings. [ADCOMP™ XPL bushings](https://autolube.ca/kcb?hsLang=en) are engineered to reduce friction, resist abrasive wear, and provide inherent self-lubrication under demanding operating conditions. [Kiln fan lubrication](https://autolube.ca/grease-oil?hsLang=en) systems ensure consistent and accurate delivery of high-temperature grease or oil, reducing friction, preventing premature wear, and maintaining proper lubrication under continuous thermal stress.   ![Kiln](https://autolube.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/Kiln.jpg?width=700&height=300&name=Kiln.jpg "Kiln") ![PXL_20231004_210649289-1](https://autolube.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/PXL_20231004_210649289-1.jpg?width=250&height=329&name=PXL_20231004_210649289-1.jpg "PXL_20231004_210649289-1") ### Bearings with Grease or Oil Industrial Autolube designs and supplies automated oil and grease lubrication systems for a wide range of applications — from debarkers to step feeders and beyond — ensuring consistent lubrication across the entire production line. By eliminating manual greasing intervals, our systems enhance equipment reliability, improve safety, and support predictive maintenance strategies through controlled grease delivery and monitoring capabilities.
