The lubrication of each crane mechanism is a key link in ensuring safe production, maintaining stable mechanism operation, and extending equipment service life. The lubrication condition of each mechanism must be taken seriously, and the overhead crane lubrication system must be checked frequently to ensure it is working properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hndfcrane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Overhead-Crane-Lubrication-Pump.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16237\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"overhead-crane-lubrication-system-classification\">Overhead Crane Lubrication System Classification<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"lubrication-for-most-overhead-crane-mechanisms\">Lubrication for Most Overhead Crane Mechanisms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These lubrication points include: wheel bearings, horizontal guide wheel bearings, wheel equalizer pin bushings, fixed sheave bearings, wire rope equalizer pin bushings, drum bearings, and the like. Some use a manual high-pressure grease gun to inject grease into each oil cup periodically; a centralized lubrication system can also be used as required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The specific use of the centralized lubrication system (configured as required) is to periodically use a grease pump to inject grease into each lubrication point through a distributor, so that each lubrication point is fully lubricated. The grease pump can be divided into a manual pump or an electric pump. In addition to the fixed installation form, a mobile electric lubricator cart is also used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1125\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hndfcrane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Electric-Lubrication-pump.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16224\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The manual pump pumps out grease by manually operating the handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hndfcrane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Manual-Lubrication-pumps.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16230\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After the electric pump is powered on, it performs the oil suction and pressure function, pumping grease out of the oil reservoir. Because it is equipped with alarm devices such as a pressure switch, a low oil level switch, and a cycle switch, it achieves fully automatic lubrication by means of the electric control box (see the figure below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mobile electric lubricator cart is formed by an electric pump equipped with a mobile cart, oil drum, oil pipe, grease gun, and cable (see the figure below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"647\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hndfcrane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/lubrication-pump-diagram.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16225\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"overhead-crane-wheel-flange-lubrication\">Overhead Crane Wheel Flange Lubrication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A graphite lubricator or a wheel oiler is used for lubrication (selected as specified in the contract) to reduce the resistance between the wheel and the side of the rail and extend the service life of the wheel and rail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The graphite lubricating block in the graphite lubricator presses against the inner wheel flange (the graphite lubricating block forms an angle of about 42\u201345\u00b0 with the wheel plane), and is adjusted to apply a certain pressure. When the wheel rotates, the graphite continuously lubricates the wheel flange. The elastic element in the lubricator keeps a certain pressure of the graphite against the inner wheel flange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The oiling wheel of the wheel oiler contacts the inner wheel flange and is more than 3 mm above the wheel tread; its rotation axis forms an angle of about 40\u00b0 with the wheel tread, and it is adjusted so that the oiling wheel has slight pressure against the wheel.

The oiling wheel contacts the wire rope wound on the fixed sheave, applying a small amount of oil to the wire rope passing over that fixed sheave. When the hoisting mechanism is working, the contact between the wire rope wound on the fixed sheave and the oiling wheel produces friction that drives the oiling wheel to rotate, putting the oil pump into working condition and continuously supplying oil to the oiling wheel; the oil seeping out of the oiling wheel lubricates the wire rope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"789\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hndfcrane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Installation-diagram-of-single-strand-wire-rope-oiler.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16227\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The mobile wire rope oiler consists of an oil tank, oil pipe, oil pump, mounting bracket, guide rail, oiling wheel, and other parts.
