Indeco North America launched Lubemaxx, an automatic greasing system for hydraulic breakers. According to the company, the lube system increases hammer longevity and productivity, and it reduces maintenance costs.
Specifically designed to deliver the exact amount of required grease every time the breaker operates, Indeco’s Lubemaxx system helps to eliminate lengthy work stoppages associated with manual hammer greasing operations. Operators gain productivity and operating efficiencies through easily installed, disposable grease cartridges fitted to a breaker-mounted pump, Indeco says.
“Based on recent customer feedback, we developed the Lubemaxx system to offer our clients a better lubrication process that keeps their Indeco hammers running trouble-free with minimal downtime and maximum efficiency,” says Michael Fischer, president and CEO of Indeco North America.
The unit installs to the breaker’s housing with a mounting plate, and it does not require separate electrical cables. Additionally, the grease cartridges feature a see-through channel so operators can easily judge the amount of grease left in a cartridge, the company adds.
Lubemaxx grease cartridges contain Indeco’s Supreme 1000 extra heavy-duty breaker lubricant, which is designed with copper and molybdenum to withstand extreme pressure and wear.
Indeco North America serves as a provider of heavy-duty hydraulic breakers, compactors, pulverizers and pedestal booms for demolition, scrap, recycling, mining and road construction applications.
