Bus & Coach

With city buses and coaches operating 24 hours, 7 days a week - proper maintenance is necessary. Changing drivers, tight timetables and strict environmental requirements make this incredibly challenging. Groeneveld-BEKA specializes in these challenges with quality automatic lubrication, oil management and safety support systems.

Automatic lubrication systems

Manual lubrication of steering joints, axles and articulating systems is dirty, unpleasant, time-consuming work.  With manual lubrication, it is more difficult for the grease to reach all surfaces, resulting in extra wear.  Automatic lubrication with a Groeneveld-BEKA system is a great solution and offers major benefits:

Save time and money on lubrication related failures and repair
Improved productivity
Superior spread of the grease over the to be lubricated surface

Recommended automatic lubrication systems

The following Groeneveld-BEKA automatic lubrication systems are suitable for buses and coaches:

  • SingleLine

    • Optimum lubrication and sealing of all points.
    • Easy to install and extend.
    • Quality of the grease is preserved with low work pressure.
  • BEKA PICO

    • Compact dimensions, ideal for restricted installation place.
    • Heavy duty components.
    • Suitable for all common lubricants (NLGI 000, 00, 0, 1, 2).

Fluid control systems

Oil levels and quality are key for the proper functioning of an engine: levels that are too high will lead to extra oil and fuel consumption and oil levels too low can cause serious damage. Groeneveld-BEKA's product line-up also includes the Filtakleen, developed to keep oil in perfect condition. 

Groeneveld-BEKA's Oilmaster oil management system ensures that the oil is always at an optimum level. Checking the oil level manually, is a thing of the past. This will not only save time, it will also prevent engine damage with all its costly and time consuming consequences. The Oilmaster offers the following benefits:

No need to check the oil level and fill the oil manually - pure time gain and ease on the road
Always the optimum oil level and correct oil specification
No engine damage as a result of an insufficient amount of oil in the engine

 Recommended fluid control system

Both the Oilmaster and Filtakleen can be applied in the bus and coach segment.

  • What is lubrication?

    The application of a film of grease between moving parts in a machine or vehicle. The film of grease prevents any metallic contact between moving parts, like pins and bushings, bearings and steering knuckles. It also stops dirt, water and dust entering the lubrication point and prevents corrosion. Inadequate lubrication causes wear and tear, machine and vehicle failure and increases costs.

  • What is grease?

    Grease is a thickened oil and always consists of two different components: oil and a thickener. The oil is the actual lubricant, while the thickener ensures that the oil remains in place.

  • What does automatic lubrication involve?

    Automatic lubrication involves pumping the grease from the reservoir of the lubrication system to the lubrication points. The quantity of grease per lubrication point and the interval can both be set in advance.

  • Which types of automatic lubrication systems are there?

    Progressive systems. All lubrication points are consecutively lubricated with the predetermined amount of grease. Parallel systems. All lubrication points are administered the predetermined amount of grease at the same time.

  • For which situations is an automatic lubrication system suitable?

    For all situations in which moving parts need to be separated from each other by means of a film of grease. Groeneveld lubrication systems are most frequently used for wheel loaders, excavators, trucks, trailers, buses, port equipment, mining machines, forestry equipment and agricultural equipment.
