Patented add-on systems for ERW tube mills: anti-rust protection and saw blade lubrication
Dietronic systems are patented, fully automatic add-on solutions designed specifically for ERW tube and pipe mills. The anti-rust system protects freshly welded tubes from surface oxidation immediately after production, while the saw blade lubrication system extends blade life and improves cut quality at the flying cut-off station.
Both systems feature PLC-controlled automatic dosing, touchscreen HMI operation, and minimal maintenance requirements.
The Dietronic Anti-Rust system applies a precise, uniform film of anti-rust oil onto freshly welded ERW tubes immediately after production. The patented spray nozzle array ensures complete 360-degree coverage, preventing surface oxidation during storage and transit.
The system is fully automatic with PLC control and touchscreen HMI, requiring minimal operator intervention. Dosing is adjusted automatically based on tube diameter and line speed, ensuring consistent coverage with minimal oil consumption.
The Dietronic Saw Blade Lubrication system delivers precisely controlled lubrication to the flying cut-off saw blade during tube cutting operations. This extends blade life significantly while improving cut quality and reducing burr formation.
The system uses a patented nozzle design that targets the exact cutting zone, minimizing lubricant waste and keeping the work environment clean. Automatic flow control adapts to cutting frequency and blade condition.
