Automatic lubrication for agricultural machinery
Help keep tractors, harvesters, loaders, implements and feed equipment consistently lubricated through busy farming seasons.
We match, install and calibrate Groeneveld-BEKA automatic lubrication systems for agricultural machinery, farm vehicles and suitable fixed equipment throughout the South Island.

Where automatic lubrication can make a difference
Difficult or unsafe access
Grease points may be underneath machinery, behind guards, around moving components or positioned where access is awkward.
Automatic lubrication reduces the need for workers to repeatedly climb around or underneath equipment for routine greasing.
Busy seasons and long working days
Harvesting, planting and feeding schedules can leave limited time for machinery to be stopped and manually greased.
Automatic systems can deliver lubricant at programmed intervals while the equipment is operating.
Dust, mud, water & vibration
Agricultural machinery operates around soil, crop residue, mud, moisture and vibration while pins, bushes and bearings remain under load.
Regular, measured lubrication helps maintain a protective supply of lubricant to connected components.
Missed or inconsistent greasing
Manual greasing can be delayed when machinery is shared between operators or work needs to continue during a narrow weather window.
Automatic lubrication helps provide a regular supply to the points connected to the system, based on the machine’s operating requirements.
Recommended systems for agriculture
LSL designs, installs and calibrates Groeneveld-BEKA automatic lubrication systems for agricultural machinery, farm vehicles and suitable stationary equipment
BEKA EP-1
Versatile greasing for machinery, implements and farm equipment
A progressive automatic lubrication system suited to tractors, telehandlers, loaders, balers, implements, feed equipment and suitable stationary machinery with multiple lubrication points.
The progressive distribution layout provides a practical way to centralise lubrication and help confirm whether the system is completing its lubrication cycle.
Groeneveld SingleLine
Automatic greasing for farm trucks, trailers and selected equipment
A single-line automatic greasing system suited to farm trucks, trailers and selected feedout wagons where a single-line layout is appropriate.
Individual metering units supply measured quantities of grease to each lubrication point connected to the system.
Groeneveld Twin
Heavy-duty greasing for large agricultural machinery
A dual-line automatic greasing system suited to combine harvesters, self-propelled sprayers, large loaders, specialist harvesting machinery and other large equipment with numerous lubrication points or long grease lines.
Individual metering units allow different points to receive quantities selected for their lubrication requirements.
Our process in four easy steps
1
Assess
We review the equipment, lubrication points, removable attachments, operating conditions and current maintenance process.
We also identify any points that will remain manually lubricated.
2
Match
We select the pump, distribution method, reservoir, monitoring options and hose layout for the application.
Where a proven installation already exists, we can use it as the starting point and adapt it to the equipment.
3
Install
Our technicians install the system on site or in the workshop.
Installation can be coordinated around servicing, seasonal downtime or a period when the equipment is not required for critical farm work.
4
Calibrate
We set the lubricant quantities and operating intervals, test the system and confirm that each connected point is receiving lubricant.
After commissioning, we can provide servicing, genuine parts and technical support.
FAQ
Our company specializes in consulting, product development, and customer support. We tailor our services to fit the unique needs of businesses across various sectors, helping them grow and succeed in a competitive market.
Yes. Automatic lubrication can be fitted to many tractors, loaders, telehandlers, harvesters, balers, feedout wagons and other suitable agricultural machines.
The system must be designed around the number and location of the lubrication points, machine power supply, attachments and operating conditions.
Sometimes, but it depends on how the equipment is connected and how often the attachment is removed.
A suitable installation may use connection points between the tractor and implement, or the attachment may require its own lubrication system. LSL will assess the equipment before recommending a layout.
Yes. Suitable Groeneveld-BEKA systems can use different metering units or pumping elements so each connected point receives a quantity selected for its lubrication requirements.
This is useful where larger pins and bushes require more lubricant than smaller bearings or joints.
Not always.
Some points may not be suitable for connection because of their location, movement, servicing requirements or the way an attachment is removed. These points are identified during the assessment and commissioning process so operators know which ones still require manual greasing.
Yes, an automatic lubrication system delivers lubricant at programmed intervals while the machine is operating.
On moving pins, bushes and bearings, this can help spread the lubricant across the working surfaces rather than relying only on greasing while the machine is stationary.
Systems can be selected and installed for demanding agricultural environments, with components and hoses positioned to reduce exposure to damage.
The system still requires regular visual checks, and pumps or electrical components should not be directly exposed to a high-pressure water jet.
Yes. Separate automatic oil lubrication systems may be suitable for chains on harvesters, seeders, conveyors and other agricultural machinery.
The chain type, operating speed, lubricant and surrounding environment need to be assessed before a system is selected.
The cost depends on the system type, number of lubrication points, reservoir size, monitoring requirements, machine layout and installation time.
We will assess the equipment and provide a tailored quote rather than using a standard price that may not suit the application.
Yes, a correctly designed and calibrated system supplies measured quantities of lubricant at selected intervals.
This can reduce the excess grease, empty cartridges and housekeeping associated with inconsistent manual greasing. The system still needs to be checked and adjusted if operating conditions or lubrication requirements change.
