Industrial Innovations (Wyoming, MI) has announced the installation of its Pro-Mix and Spra-Rite systems at North American Stamping Group’s newly-expanded Portland, TN campus, where the company stamps parts for the automotive and other industries. Use of these lubrication management solutions improve production rates, reduce lubricant consumption for improved environmental conditions and save money.
The solution consists of a new generation Pro-Mix V system capable of mixing and distributing lubricants required for processing high-strength steel and other advanced materials. The system is capable of mixing at two different ratios simultaneously to dispense lubricant throughout the plant.
For application of the lubricant, the system relies on Industrial Innovations’ patented Spra-Rite injector system and Zero-drip Z-nozzles. Lubricant volume can be precisely regulated in terms of volume and placement at specific areas of stamping or drawing tools, or the stock, at predetermined press stroke intervals. Key to the system’s precision is the ability to independently program each injector in terms of the amount of lubricant applied.
North American Stamping chose Industrial Innovations equipment based upon its successful use and associated lubricant cost savings achieved at its Querataro, Mexico, Woodstock, Ontario and Portland, TN facilities.
Industrial Innovations is a leading manufacturer of industrial lubrication equipment for operation in metalworking industries including die casting, metalforming, machining and stamping. The company is known for its comprehensive approach to lubrication solution development, supported by the effective engineering principles, reliable components and quality construction of its equipment.
North American Stamping Group has installed an Industrial Innovations’ lubrication management system at its new Portland, TN plan, inclusive of a Spra-Rite system for precise application of lubricant.
