Automatic Lubrication for quarry equipment and fixed plant
Help keep excavators, loaders, haul equipment, conveyors, crushers and screens consistently lubricated through demanding operating conditions.
We match, install and calibrate Groeneveld-BEKA automatic lubrication systems for mobile quarry equipment, fixed processing plant and site vehicles throughout the South Island.

Where automatic lubrication can make a difference
Difficult or unsafe access
Many lubrication points are difficult to reach, positioned at height or located around guards and moving machinery.
Automatic lubrication reduces the need for workers to repeatedly access these areas for routine greasing.
Dust, water & heavy loads
Quarry equipment operates around dust, water, vibration and abrasive material while bearings, pins and bushes work under heavy loads.
Regular, measured lubrication helps maintain a protective grease supply around working components.
Long operating hours
Mobile equipment and processing plant may operate for long shifts with limited opportunities for manual greasing.
Automatic systems can deliver lubricant at programmed intervals while the equipment is operating.
Missed or inconsistent greasing
Manual greasing can be delayed or overlooked during busy production and maintenance schedules.
Automatic lubrication helps provide a regular, measured supply to the points connected to the system.
Recommened systems for quarry and aggregates
The most suitable system depends on the equipment, number and location of lubrication points, operating conditions and lubricant requirements.
Groeneveld Twin
Heavy-duty greasing for large equipment and fixed plant
A dual-line automatic greasing system suited to excavators, wheel loaders, articulated dump trucks, fixed plant 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.
BEKA EP-1
Versatile greasing for mobile machinery and fixed plant
A progressive automatic lubrication system suited to conveyors, crushers, screens, feeders, mobile machinery and other equipment with multiple lubrication points.
The progressive distribution layout provides a practical way to centralise lubrication and confirm that the system is operating correctly.
Groeneveld SingleLine
Automatic greasing for trucks and trailers
A single-line automatic greasing system designed for road trucks, trailers and suitable commercial vehicles operating in and around quarry sites.
Individual metering units supply measured quantities of grease to each lubrication point connected to the system.
Our process in four easy steps
1
Assess
We review the equipment, lubrication points, 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.
For fixed plant, installation can be coordinated around equipment access, maintenance work or a planned shutdown.
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 conveyors, crushers, screens, feeders, bearings and other suitable processing equipment.
The system must be designed around the number and position of the lubrication points, lubricant requirements, available power supply and plant operating schedule.
Depending on the pump and controller selected, the system may include pressure monitoring, cycle monitoring, low-level warnings or an external fault output.
LSL can configure the warning method to suit the equipment and the way operators monitor the plant.
Yes. Depending on the system, different metering units, distributor outputs or pumping elements can be selected to provide quantities matched to the requirements of each component.
The Twin system, for example, uses metering units with a range of outputs so the quantity can be selected for each lubrication point.
Yes. Depending on the system, different metering units, distributor outputs or pumping elements can be selected to provide quantities matched to the requirements of each component.
The Twin system, for example, uses metering units with a range of outputs so the quantity can be selected for each lubrication point.
Yes. Fixed-plant installations can be scheduled around planned maintenance or shutdown periods where practical.
The installation time depends on the number of points, line routing, electrical requirements, access and any preparation completed before the shutdown.
The cost depends on the equipment, system type, number of lubrication points, reservoir size, monitoring requirements, hose routing and installation access.
Send us the equipment details and photos, and we can recommend a suitable system and prepare a tailored quote.
Yes. LSL services and supports Groeneveld-BEKA automatic lubrication systems and holds parts in Christchurch.
A correctly designed and calibrated system delivers measured quantities of lubricant at programmed intervals. This can help reduce avoidable over-greasing, grease build-up and the amount of excess lubricant collecting dust or falling onto equipment and work areas.
Some grease discharge around moving joints is still normal, and the system must be inspected and adjusted if excessive grease is appearing.
