Equipment maintenance and metalworking

BECHEM lubricants for industrial equipment

Specify BECHEM lubricants for a production line, machine or individual component. Send a lubrication chart, existing product designation or process requirements to begin the selection.

Materials and application requirements

Equipment maintenance and metalworking use different materials: greases, oils, coolants, coatings and pastes. Choose the relevant application and prepare information about the lubrication point or production operation.

  • Synthetic, mineral-oil-free base fluids.
  • Different viscosity grades in the range.
  • Grinding, drilling and deep-hole drilling.
  • Turning, milling, honing and thread production.

Berulit GA and Berugear HV for open gears

Berulit GA and Berugear HV address lubrication of large open industrial gears. Provide the drive type, load, peripheral speed and application method. Identify the current lubricant and the lubrication equipment.

  • Open drives on tube mills and rotary kilns.
  • Applications in dryers and mixing drums.
  • Berugear HV: light-coloured, highly viscous lubricants.
  • Identify the gear ring, pinion and lubricant delivery system.

Berusynth chain oils

Berusynth chain oils address drive and conveyor chain lubrication. Describe the chain, temperature at the lubrication point, running speed and dosing equipment. For ovens or dryers, include the heating cycle and contamination conditions.

  • Drive and conveyor chain applications.
  • The range includes high-temperature products.
  • Berusynth CU 250 and CF 250 are separate product designations.
  • Provide chain temperature and dosing method.

Lubricants for forming and stamping

BECHEM forming lubricants cover sheet and bulk metal forming. Describe the alloy, workpiece thickness or section, operation and initial surface condition. Include later cleaning, painting or heat-treatment stages.

This allows the enquiry to consider the production sequence rather than only the forming tool.

  • Cold and hot forming applications.
  • Sheet forming and bulk metal forming.
  • Berulit and Beruforge ranges for massive forming.
  • Form P 3200 S for deep drawing stainless steel sheet.

Unopol and Berudraw drawing lubricants

BECHEM supplies dedicated drawing fluids and emulsions for wire production. Specify the metal, incoming and final diameters, number of passes and line speed. Describe annealing and cleaning separately from drawing.

  • Unopol S: synthetic fluids for fine wire applications.
  • Unopol AL: emulsions for aluminium wire.
  • Unopol SPG 623: annealing fluid.

Berucoat AF anti-friction coatings

Berucoat AF comprises anti-friction coatings primarily intended for metal surfaces. Describe the friction pair, loading, surface preparation and available drying or curing process. A drawing should identify the coating area and dimensional requirements.

  • Air-drying and heat-curing systems within the range.
  • Graphite, MoS2, PTFE or combined solid lubricants.
  • Applications include pistons, springs and mechanisms.
  • Berucoat AF 732 is a heat-curing coating.

Official BECHEM documents and sources

Materials for an equipment project

For new equipment, provide its lubrication chart and process fluid list. Separate initial filling from maintenance consumption and state each system volume. A multi-machine line benefits from a table listing equipment, component, grade, quantity and delivery method.

Identify shutdown maintenance materials separately from fluids consumed during production. Add the destination and the person responsible for technical clarification. Mark urgent items and planned replenishment separately.

For several locations, group quantities by receiving site and identify whether partial deliveries are useful. Keep the original manufacturer designation in each row so technical review and purchasing refer to the same material.

Replacement and repeat purchasing

Attach the existing label and technical data sheet for a repeat order. For a proposed replacement, explain the reason for changing and the actual operating conditions. Identify contacting materials, temperature, load and water exposure.

The equipment manufacturer’s requirements and maintenance chart support technical assessment. State whether old material remains in the system and who will approve the transition procedure at your plant.

Availability, price, lead time, packaging, compatibility, replacement suitability and documents are confirmed for the specific enquiry before an order is agreed. We do not claim authorised dealer status. Approvals and certificates are checked for the exact product. Include the designation, quantity and delivery destination.
