Correct Lubrication Schedule for a Tire Grinder

Proper lubrication is the lifeblood of your tire grinder, directly preventing the two biggest enemies of heavy machinery: friction and heat. The bearings on the main rollers operate under immense pressure and are in constant motion, creating conditions where inadequate lubrication can lead to rapid overheating and premature failure. A consistent lubrication schedule isn’t just maintenance; it’s a critical preventative measure that ensures the mechanical heart of your operation runs smoothly and efficiently, shift after shift.

As a general rule, a visual check of bearing lubrication should be part of your daily start-up routine, and a full re-greasing of all specified points should occur on a weekly basis. It is crucial to use a high-temperature, high-pressure lithium-based grease, as standard lubricants will quickly break down under the grinder’s extreme operating conditions. Always consult your specific tire grinding machine manual for the exact type and amount of grease required, as over-lubricating can be as harmful as under-lubricating by blowing out bearing seals.
