Boosting Gearbox Performance: Upgrading Lubrication for P2U3 and CPU

At MAAG GEAR, our goal is to support the long-term reliability and performance of your mechanical equipment.

As part of our ongoing commitment to operational excellence, we are launching an initiative to upgrade the lubrication systems originally supplied with our P2U3 and CPU gearboxes.

These units, delivered several decades ago, are now facing challenges due to obsolete components and discontinued spare parts.

Over the years, many elements within the original lubrication systems have become outdated. In some cases, the suppliers of individual components are no longer in business, making maintenance and repair increasingly difficult.

Without proper lubrication, gearbox performance can degrade rapidly. Critical components such as gears and bearings are especially vulnerable to wear, overheating, and mechanical failure. This can lead to unplanned downtime, increased repair costs, and potentially the need for full gearbox replacement.

To address these issues, we now offer a new generation of high-performance lubrication systems tailored specifically for P2U3 and CPU gearboxes. Already in use in current CPU applications, this system provides a reliable and efficient solution that significantly improves operational stability.

Benefits of the new lubrication system:

  • - Energy efficiency: the new units are equipped with IE4 motors, reducing energy consumption and improving system sustainability.
  • - Lower operating costs: reduced power demand leads to lower electricity bills and a more efficient production process.
  • - Improved thermal management: lower heat generation ensures better protection of internal components and greater system longevity.
  • - Increased reliability: consistent lubrication reduces wear, extending the life of gears and bearings.
  • - Regulatory readiness: compliance with current and future energy efficiency standards ensures long-term operational security.
  • - Extended gearbox life: proper lubrication minimizes friction and mechanical stress, preserving the gearbox’s structural integrity.

To make the upgrade process as efficient as possible, the system is offered as a complete plug-and-play solution. This includes pre-assembled piping and dedicated support from our experienced service team during installation, reducing downtime and simplifying integration.

Upgrading your lubrication system is a strategic investment in the performance, efficiency, and reliability of your gearbox. It also aligns with broader goals of reducing energy use and ensuring environmental compliance.
