Oil metering

Oil metering systems are used for delivering various types of oils from their original containers to an application point where the oil can be accurately metered either onto a workpiece or into an assembly such as an engine or gearbox.

Oils with a wide range of viscosities can be processed in this way by DOPAG oil metering systems, from low to high level.

DOPAG oil metering systems are in widespread use in a variety of industries such as automotive assembly, automotive component manufacturing, aerospace, and bearing manufacturing.

Oil metering can be achieved either by the use of volumetric shot metering valves or by electronically controlled gear type flowmeters. All DOPAG metering valves are pneumatically actuated and cover metered shot volumes of between 0.001ml and 100ml, whilst electronically controlled systems have no restriction on the maximum shot size.

In all cases, shot verification is possible, making the systems ideal for use in automation cells.

Oil metering systems can be fed by either a pressure feed container for light viscosity oils or transfer pumps for medium to heavy viscosity oils. Application can be manual or automatic.
