FAQ

How can I optimize my conveyor design, reduce equipment cost without reducing line efficiency?

Optimizing friction is one of the most effective ways to improve conveyor design efficiency. By integrating MicroDry® dry lubrication, friction stability allows your engineers to build leaner, shorter, and less expensive conveyor layouts:

  • Smaller Footprint: Our solution ensures high bottle stability at high-speed, meaning that you can design simpler buffer-emptying zones, cutting down on total conveyor modules and floor space.
  • Lower Component Costs: Optimizing friction eliminates the need to invest in low-friction chain and wear-strip parts.
  • Downsized Motors: Reducing mechanical stress allows you to reduce motor loads and cutting energy consumption.

The Praucs Advantage: We do not just supply equipment; we help OEMs optimize machine design by integrating a unique dry lubrication solution that gives them a major competitive edge:

  • Customized Layouts: Tailored to your specific machinery design and industrial application.
  • Higher Machine Value and OEE.

At high speeds, container instability is driven by:

  • difference in friction levels between the belt surface and the container base due to grip level difference, and jam shocks.
  • difference in friction levels between the belt and the wear-strip which create micro-vibration and stick-slip effect.

By integrating CHP MicroDry® technology, a microscopic thin layer of DLT-333® lubricant is evenly distributed across both the top and bottom belt surfaces, repairing belt’s cracks, eliminating stick-slip and micro-vibrations , which leads to a stable and smooth flow. This results in smoother container travel: stable friction and consistent lubrication minimize bottle instability at every point of the line

The choice of lubrication system directly impacts how much the equipment manufacturer will spend on maintenance and operations over the machine’s lifetime.

Unlike conventional lubrication systems that rely on spraying or brushes methods, Praucs offers the technology of MicroDry® that allows the lubricant DLT333® to effectively repair damaged surfaces and to reduce friction by using contact nozzles for belt surface and injection nozzles for wear strip, lubricating precise zones of both the top of the belt and the wear strip without the need of water or spraying high quantity of lubricant.

The result for the equipment manufacturer: lower operating costs, safer working environment, and significantly less maintenance and downtime.

The most effective conveyor lubrication solution for bottling and crates lines is the one that:

  • Covers the maximum contact areas across the line: chain surfaces, wear strips, chain sides, air conveyor guides, roller chains, and back pressure chains.
  • Works on PET bottles, glass bottles, cans, multi-packs, and plastic crates at the same time.
  • Delivers the lowest total operating cost, reducing water, chemicals, energy consumption and maintenance.
  • Enables precise, optimized friction control across lines and container types.
  • Integrates easily into existing line equipment, and scales to future line expansions.

Requires minimal servicing, maintains stable lubrication settings, and supports remote online monitoring.

MicroDry® simplifies conveyor design with several key advantages:

  • Targeted lubrication: Dedicated nozzles lubricate all critical contact points, including the chain wear strips and chain sides in curves, unlike other systems that only lubricate the belt surface
  • Precision dosing: controlled dosage nozzles from a central unit deliver optimal lubrication: the right amount of lubricant exactly where it is needed for consistent performance.
  • Air conveyor lubrication: MicroDry® provides effective lubrication for air conveyors where this application cannot be found in other lubrication systems.
  • One system for all applications: One lubricant and one lubrication system compatible with different chain types, pack formats, and machine configurations

Most dry lubrication systems do require cleaning: brushes and spray nozzles need large lubricant quantities that mix with dust and water, creating residue that builds up, demanding regular cleaning.
However, with MicroDry®, its lubricant DLT-333® is applied in a microscopic solid film, repels water and dust, leaves no residue, and keeps conveyor belts dry: Less mess, less downtime.

Yes. MicroDry® works on all types of plastic chains, bottles and containers making it a universal standard across the line:

    • Existing conveyors can be equipped with MicroDry® regardless of the lubrication type already in use.
    • Partial conveyor delivery into existing lines is feasible; no need to convert the entire line at once.
    • Newly installed MicroDry® lubrication equipment can be extended to existing conveyors upon end users demand, resulting in increasing the total line value.

MicroDry® supports sustainability across all three pillars:

Planet:
 Uses minimal lubricant, requires no water (completely dry system), and reduces energy consumption.
People: Prevents slippery floors, improves workplace safety, and eliminates conditions for bacterial growth.
Profit: Lower consumption of energy, water, and lubricant, combined with minimized maintenance enhance machine value and increase profitability.
