S T O C K TA K E THE GOOD OIL IN AUTOMATIC LUBRICATION The latest series of FAG motion guard automatic lubrication devices from bearings leader Schaeffler is providing Australasian industry with an economical and environmentally friendly method of keeping bearings in vital machinery and plant adequately lubricated. The motion guard automatic lubricator series is used for controlled relubrication by continuously supplying a sufficient quantity of fresh grease to the correct contact points of the roller bearing at the correct time to prevent undersupply or oversupply of lubrication. “Using motion guard is the most economical and environmentally-friendly method of supplying grease to rolling bearings,” says Mark Ciechanowicz, industrial services manager, Schaeffler Australia. “It is fully automatic and virtually maintenance free. By providing the precise amount required for a particular rolling bearing, there is no wastage and service life is maximised.” www.schaeffler.com.au CHOICE IN PLASTICS AND FASTENING Hi-Q Components has been supplying plastic and electronic components to the electronic, engineering and general industries for over 30 years and its vast range of fixing and fastening solutions remain a popular choice.

They are now available from Iscar Plus. Machinists who use Albrecht can expect rigidity, accuracy, a higher chip removal rate, and 100% process reliability. Attention to detail is what makes Albrecht chucks high-quality. For the chucks to achieve their high level of rigidity and accuracy, in-process gauges are used to check all components at each stage of the manufacturing process. Upon assembly, each chuck is qualified with four to six different diameter test pins at two distinct locations on each pin. This attention to detail means extreme accuracy, leading to uniform wear over time, and resulting in a longer tool life and all the advantages that come with that.
