Manual Greasing vs Automatic Lubrication: Labor, Safety, Reliability & the Case for Autolube

Описание: Manual greasing has been the standard for decades—but is it still the best solution in today’s labor-constrained, uptime-driven world? In this video, we provide a side-by-side, real-world comparison of traditional grease-gun maintenance versus an automatic lubrication system from Lubecore.

We break down the differences in labor requirements, safety, consistency, system visibility, and long-term reliability:
You’ll see exactly how each method performs when it comes to:
Labor availability and missed maintenance
Hard-to-reach or hazardous grease points
System maintenance and refill processes
Verifying grease levels and delivery
Controlling and metering grease at each lubrication point
Knowing when a system is full—or empty

Whether you manage heavy equipment, trucks, agricultural machinery, or industrial assets, this comparison highlights why lubrication strategy matters more than ever.

By leaving your greasing chores to an autogrease system, you can maximize your productive up-time and ensuring your equipment is getting the grease it needs.

Lubecore MN serves practically every industry, from governmental agencies and municipalities, to both large and small private fleets. Lubecore MN also installs on a variety of other equipment, including yellow iron, heavy equipment, heavy trucks, industrial applications, mini equipment, off-road, and over-the-road trucks (OTR) and trailers.

With pervasive labor shortages, looming project deadlines, lack of part availability, and overloaded mechanics and operators, automatic greasing systems make tremendous economic sense. In fact, it is estimated that 87% of bearing and pin failures occur from too little grease.

If you've never tried an auto grease system, there are some incredible benefits:
Less downtime, labor, & wasted grease
Lower maintenance: Greases equipment while in use!
Saves money & time
