HIWIN Expands EL Self-Lubricating Module is Specially to Support Food-Grade Lubrication Applications

To meet the diverse equipment requirements for long-lasting lubrication and reduced maintenance, the HIWIN EL Self-Lubricating Module has expanded its range of compatible linear guideway specifications. The expanded range includes additional sizes and dust protection accessory combinations for the HG, QH, EG, and QE Series, providing more comprehensive and flexible product selection options.

The EL Self-Lubricating Module can be installed at both ends of a ballscrew nut or linear guideway block to continuously supply an appropriate amount of lubricating oil, helping extend maintenance intervals and improve equipment operating stability. In addition to general industrial lubricating oils, the EL device can also be used with food-grade lubricating oils that comply with NSF H1 requirements, further addressing the lubrication safety requirements of food processing and packaging equipment. Actual suitability should be evaluated based on the equipment operating conditions and lubricant characteristics. Please contact HIWIN for further information.

With this specification expansion, the EL Self-Lubricating Module can be widely applied in automation and smart manufacturing, semiconductor and advanced packaging, electronics and display manufacturing, precision equipment and inspection instruments, conveying and material handling equipment, food processing and packaging equipment, and industrial machinery. It helps customers improve equipment lubrication management efficiency and overall operating reliability.
