4.2 Function
4.2.1 Functional description
The lubrication system serves to automatically lubricate Güdel components.
The FlexxPump4 feeds the lubricant from the lubricant cartridge into the lu-
brication lines. Depending on the design, the lubricant is distributed through
splitters, combined through Y-segments, or distributed directly to the lubrica-
tion areas. Rack and pinion are lubricated by the lubricating pinion The rail is
lubricated by the lubricating element
The FlexxPump4 outputs a signal in case of overpressure, if the lubricant car-
tridge is empty, and for each piston stroke. This makes it possible to process
such information further.
4.2.2 FlexxPump
The product is supplied by an external power source. This magnetic peg is
used to adjust the lubricant output. If the product is connected to an PLC, a
signal will be transmitted to the PLC in the event of an error. The type of er-
ror is shown on the display.
4.2.2.1 Display elements
The LCD (display) provides information on malfunctions and operating modes
of the product. Three colored LEDs (light diodes) are used for visual recogni-
tion of the states.
