Mountain railways
Lubricants for maximum reliability in alpine conditions
Whether in cable cars or snow groomers: Alpine operations demand that machinery and equipment perform at their absolute best every day under extreme conditions – from freezing temperatures and fluctuating loads to moisture caused by snow, rain and condensation. For operations managers and maintenance specialists, one thing is clear: the right lubrication is crucial for avoiding downtime, ensuring safety and guaranteeing operational readiness throughout the season.
All product groups are already listed. Until the new online shop is available, the links for each group will direct you to the central product list. This way, you can keep track of everything at all times. Further documentation can be found on myChemicals - your personal platform for technical data sheets, brochures and more.
Product groups: Mountain railways
Benefits at a glance
- Reliable performance in cold conditions and fluctuating temperatures: temperature-stable lubricants with a low yield point ensure reliable lubrication during cold starts and under heavy loads – for consistent performance from the valley station to the summit.
- Less wear – longer maintenance intervals: Heavy-duty formulations protect bearings, gearboxes and hydraulic components against abrasion, corrosion and material fatigue – even during start-stop operation and vibrations.
- Reliability under high mechanical stress: Low-friction lubricating films enable the safe operation of mountain railways, lifts and vehicles, even under steep load conditions and during continuous operation.
- Effective protection against environmental factors: additive technologies prevent damage caused by moisture, salt and dirt – ensuring stable operation in all weather conditions.
Applications and solutions for alpine use
- Hydraulic systems in lifts and vehicles: Hydraulic oils with stable pressure and temperature properties ensure the precise control of conveyor and lifting systems – even at -30 °C and at high frequencies.
- Drive and transmission systems: High-performance engine and transmission oils ensure smooth power transmission on inclines, during braking and under high torque loads.
- UTTO lubricants: Combined solutions for machinery with a shared oil circuit – ideal for snow groomers.
Service commitment for enhanced performance
- Technical advice and condition analysis: Dedicated contacts will guide you through product selection, conversions and optimisations. High-precision used oil analyses at the LAEMMLE Tec Centre (LTC) enable well-informed decisions to improve efficiency, extend service life and minimise risk.
- Service, maintenance and repair: The digital Roxor Machine Tool (RMT) simplifies planning, documentation and condition monitoring. In addition, professional oil sampling, the hire of hydraulic oil filtration systems and other on-site services ensure smooth operation – even with complex fleets of machinery.
- Optimised lubricant logistics: Availability tailored to your needs and flexible delivery concepts ensure a continuous supply of lubricants and guarantee uninterrupted production processes.
- Sustainable disposal: Efficient used oil collection processes enable resource-efficient production cycles and legally compliant lubricant disposal.
Ensure the reliable operation of your mountain railways and alpine machinery – even under extreme conditions. Our specialists will be happy to advise you.
