Brammer has joined forces with other electrical devices.

with bearings and lubrication
specialist SKF to help deliver
a turnkey solution for Expert
Tooling of Tyne & Wear. The
company needed help with
developing a lubrication
system for a piece of tooling
to insert bushes into position
on a car suspension subframe.

Previously the bushes had
been lubricated manually
before insertion; the
company wanted to automate
the process to boost efficiency
and health and safety.

Brammer supplied a range
of SKF pumps, nozzles and
valves. These have enabled
Expert Tooling to build
systems incorporating a
closed box into which each
bush is inserted for
automatic lubrication before
loading into the subframe.

Phil Gazeley of Expert
Tooling says: “The input
from Brammer and SKF was
vital in developing the basic
design of the system which
has been adapted to cope
with bushes of different sizes
and has brought major
efficiencies to the end user.”
