一、Frequency of Lubrication

?

Hojama recommends that the frequency of lubrication and maintenance for lead screws can be set to 1 time/three months. Regular maintenance helps keep the leadscrew running smoothly and avoid potential hazards caused by friction and wear. However, for lead screws used in high-usage or dusty and other harsh environments, the frequency of lubrication and maintenance should be appropriately increased.

?

二、How to Determine if the Lead Screw Lubrication is Needed?

?

1. If the lead screw assemblies make grinding, squeaking, or other abnormal noises during operation, it means the product is dry and needs lubrication.

?

2. If the smoothness of the lead screw's rotation is much worse than before or it rotates with great difficulty, this indicates that the friction has increased significantly and lubrication is required.

?

3. If many grooves and scratches are found when inspecting the lead screw, you need to use lubricating oil, etc. to prevent further damage.

?

4. If a large amount of dust or plastic particles accumulate on the surface of the lead screw with the nut, this will increase the running friction to a certain extent, and some cleaning and lubrication are also needed.

?

5. When the lead screw set is in a humid, dusty, or dirty environment, lubrication is required to prevent corrosion or pollution.

?

三、Lubrication Method:

?

1. Material Preparation:

?

1) Cleaning cloth (tissue, old rag, etc.)

?

2) Lubricant (grease or lubricant)

?

3) Brush

?

4) Disposable gloves

?

?

2. Lubrication Operation

?

1) Reserve enough space for applying the lubricant.

?

2) Place a tissue or cleaning cloth under the working area to remove excess lubricant and particles generated during the first cleaning of the screw.

?

3) Wear gloves for proper personal protection.

?

4) Use the cloth to remove dust and plastic particles from the lead screw.

?

5) Apply a thin layer of lubricant on the lead screw.

?

6) Remove the excess lubricant near the lead screw nut.

?

7) After completing the lubrication of the lead screw product, ensure that no substance drips from the screw.

?

8) Take out the tissue/cloth to absorb the excess part.

?

9) Run the equipment using the lead screw several times to check for improvement.

?

10) Record the lubrication time to track the lubrication frequency and the need for lead screw repair.

?

Before delivering lead screw products to customers, Hojama will implement a strict quality inspection process and add lubricating oil or grease at the same time. In this way, the best performance of the product is guaranteed, so that customers can smoothly put the lead screw into use after receiving it, and it runs normally and efficiently, achieving maximum customer satisfaction.
