Digital Inline Lubrication Flow Meter and Sensor

Pressure switches tell you the pump is working, but they don't guarantee fluid is actually moving. A crushed pipe will show high pressure but deliver zero oil. The Digital Inline Lubrication Flow Meter solves this. Installed in the main feed lines, it physically measures the volume of oil or fluid grease passing through it. Utilizing precision oval gears or turbine mechanisms, it sends digital pulse signals back to the PLC, providing undeniable proof that the exact required volume of lubricant has reached the friction points.

Key Advantages & Benefits:

  • Absolute Verification: Provides real-time data on actual fluid volume, not just system pressure.
  • Micro-Flow Detection: Highly sensitive internal gears can detect and measure extremely slow, intermittent lubrication flows.
  • Programmable Alerts: Can trigger an immediate machine shutdown if the flow rate drops below or exceeds strict predefined parameters.
  • Viscosity Independent: Advanced positive displacement gear designs accurately measure flow regardless of oil temperature or thickness.

Versatile Applications:

  • Monitoring critical spindle bearing lubrication
  • Pulp and paper machine oil circulation loops
  • Large gearbox monitoring
  • Continuous process manufacturing

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

  • Q: How does the sensor communicate with my PLC? A: The sensor outputs a standard digital pulse (e.g., NPN/PNP square wave) where each pulse represents a specific volume of fluid (e.g., 1 pulse = 0.01cc).
  • Q: Does it restrict the flow of oil? A: There is a minimal pressure drop across the meter, but it is negligible for most industrial pumping systems.

FAQ

What aluminum alloys do you use to make motorcycle engine cases?

We mainly use high-performance aluminum alloys such as ADC12 and A356. The ADC12 is ideal for complex shapes such as side covers due to its excellent flow properties, while the A356 is the first choice for structural parts such as crankboxes that require excellent strength and elongation. We use a spectrometer to confirm the composition of each melt to ensure material stability.

How to ensure the tightness of the engine cover and prevent oil leaks?

Preventing leaks is the core standard we ensure. We control internal density through precise high or low pressure casting parameters. After casting, we perform precision CNC machining on the sealing surfaces and perform pneumatic leak tests on the oil passages and water passages to ensure zero leaks in the assembly.

How long is the delivery lead time for OEM motorcycle engine covers

For new OEM projects, the lead time from mold design to T1 sample delivery is typically 35-50 days. Once samples are approved, our capacity of 5000 tons per year allows us to adjust mass production plans to meet your specific delivery deadlines

What surface polishing options do you provide for motorcycle engine case covers?

Our process includes Shot Blasting and vibration deburring to achieve a clean, matte appearance. At the same time, we can also prepare powder coated or painted surfaces based on the aesthetic requirements of your brand.

Application Background and Use Scenario

Heat Pipe R&D and Sample Preparation


Heat pipe development requires stable and repeatable sample-level processing before entering mass production. During R&D stages, engineers need precise control over heating, degassing, and welding preparation to verify product structure and process feasibility. This equipment is designed to support such sample preparation tasks under controlled conditions.


Process Validation Before Mass Manufacturing


Before scaling up to full production lines, manufacturers often need to confirm welding parameters, heating lengths, and degassing performance. This machine provides a practical platform for process validation, helping reduce risks during later mass production deployment.


Integrated Heating and Degassing Process


The heating process is controlled by both temperature and time, allowing operators to set parameters according to different pipe diameters and material requirements. This helps maintain consistent thermal conditions during sample processing.
