INDUSTRIES AND APPLICATIONS

ndustries & Applications

 

Sugar Industry

​

LAAPSA lubrication technologies are developed for demanding sugar mill applications including:

• Journal bearings

• Crown wheels and open gears

• Pinions and gearboxes

• Conveyor systems

• High-load bearings

 

The SUGARPRESS range was developed as an alternative to traditional asphaltic lubricants commonly used within sugar mills, offering excellent adhesion, water resistance and protection against wear in severe operating conditions.

 

 

Mining & Heavy Industry

​

LAAPSA products are suitable for a wide range of mining and industrial applications including:

• Crushers and conveyor systems

• Slurry pump applications

• Mobile equipment and articulation points

• Heavy-duty bearings and gearboxes

• Wet and corrosive operating environments

 

The range is particularly well suited to applications exposed to heavy loads, water washout, dust contamination and high operating temperatures.

​

 

Conveyor & Materials Handling

​

LAAPSA lubrication technologies are also well suited to demanding conveyor and materials handling environments commonly found within sugar mills, mining operations, ports and bulk handling facilities.

Typical applications include conveyor bearings, pulley bearings, idlers and wet conveyor systems where water resistance, adhesion and corrosion protection are critical.
