Intelligent Metal Forming Lubrication

Environmentally Friendly Lubrication

Metal Forming Lubrication SystemsThe winning combination of Unist’s patented Uni-Roller® and our programmable SPR-2000™ fluid controller provides metal stampers and roll formers with unparalleled precision for lubricating both coil and blank stock. Boasting a robust design and a patented method of dispensing the fluid inside the rolls, the Unist solution is designed to withstand harsh manufacturing environments while applying metalforming lubricants precisely and consistently.

Traditional methods of applying fluids such as spraying or dripping only lubricate one side of the material and often result in wasted fluid, inconsistent quality, and premature die wear. The programmable Unist solution coats both sides of the stock, ensuring that each job receives the precise amount of fluid required to keep the tooling lubricated and running optimally. With systems available for almost any application, the Unist method is the easiest and most effective way to apply metal forming fluids and has been proven in thousands of applications around the world.

Powered Uni-Roller®:

Powered Uni-Roller® Features:

Powered Uni-Roller® application systems were designed specifically to evenly lubricate both sides of blanks or sheet stock. Standard systems incorporate the proven internally fed rollers and are available to coat blanks up to 70” (1778 mm) wide. Powered by a variable speed gear motor, systems are available in either direct drive or belt drive configurations, depending on size.

Uni-Roller® Type SThe Uni-Roller® Type S roller application systems are designed for consistent application of metal forming lubricant on coil stock. Based on the patented internally fed roller concept Unist pioneered in 1993, these systems are capable of evenly applying a broad range of fluids in nearly any quantity desired.

On average, a Unist system can reduce stamping fluid consumption by 50%

Mini-Roller™

The Mini-Roller™ systems are designed specifically for coating thin and narrow coils. Available in both horizontal and vertical configurations in widths up to 4” (102 mm), the Mini-Roller™ uses 1.5” (38 mm) diameter rolls and a simple spring roller pressure arrangement in order to fit in confined spaces.

LV Nozzle

For precise control of lubrication spray, the Unist Low Volume Spray Nozzle delivers with a consistent and controlled spray pattern. An integral valve at the nozzle tip ensures a crisp actuation, and the air and fluid volumes are controlled by independent needle valves which allow fine tuning of the spray output. With its compact size and various mounting options, the LV Nozzle is ideal for applying lubricant to critical die areas.

Mini-Roller™ Features:

• Perfect for thin and narrow coil stock up to 0.080” (2 mm) thick

• Horizontal or vertical configurations

• Proven internally supplied roller design in a compact package
