The lubrication system has been developed to reduce the friction between the sleeve and the plunger; to thus ensure the smooth passage of the plunger through the sleeve. This is necessary for the long shot sleeve or when there is excessive wear under the pour spout.

PURPOSE
Reduce friction between the sleeve and the plunger
Provide consistent shot velocities
Extend the operation life of both shot sleeve and plunger tip
Eliminate the contaminates getting into the casting
FUNCTION
A carefully measured amount of lubricant is vaporized to form a fine mist
The lubricant spray and air nozzle assembly is securely mounted just behind the plunger assembly
The nozzle technology effectively atomizes the lubricant to reduce overall consumption
Nozzles can be quickly interchanged to provide different spray patterns
Spray pressure and duration are both adjustable
BENEFITS
Reduce cost per shot
Increase plunger life
Increase shot sleeve life
Reduce contaminates
