High Speed Bearings

Reduce waste. Prevent wear. Maximize uptime with Industrial Autolube systems engineered for reliability and accuracy.

Precision Lubrication for High-Speed Bearings

Minimize Downtime. Maximize Performance.

High-speed bearings — such as those used in saws and other high-performance machinery — demand precise, controlled lubrication. Over-lubrication can generate excess heat, leading to premature bearing failure, costly unscheduled downtime, and unnecessary strain on maintenance budgets.

The Right Lubricant. In the Right Place. At the Right Time.

Industrial Autolube’s automated lubrication systems are engineered to deliver exactly the right amount of lubricant, exactly where and when it’s needed. Our systems are designed to:

  • Minimize friction between internal bearing surfaces

  • Prevent metal-to-metal contact

  • Extend bearing life by reducing wear and heat

  • Eliminate guesswork through consistent, micro-quantity lubrication

Each cycle delivers as little as 1/6 of a drop of oil, applied at high frequency and blended precisely into an air stream — ideal for the fast-moving components in modern industrial applications.

VIP4Air

Dropsa has taken the 'minimal lubrication' concept one step further with the VIP4Air that can achieve ultra-low volume oil discharge and at the same time provide electronic monitoring (using a custom designed differential flow sensor integrated into the unit).

This allows true minimal lubrication by applying micro-amounts of lubricants at more frequent intervals whilst giving positive feedback that oil is correctly being injected and mixed into the air stream.

VIP AIR 4.0

VIP AIR 4.0 represents the technological evolution of minimal Air/Oil  lubrication systems for high-speed spindles operating within machine tools.

This solution injects micro-quantities of lubricant precisely into the air stream, at regular intervals, all while being monitored by an advanced diagnostics and control system with Industry 4.0 and IoT Connectivity capabilities.

ADVANCED DIAGNOSTICS AND CONTROL SYSTEM
The central module can manage up to four mixing bases, (eight mini-pumps/outputs), and communicates the status of the entire system through IO-LINK or DROPSA.APP platform, via IoT connectivity.
