The digital era brought forth digitalization and automation, streamlining supply chains, optimizing inventory management, and enhancing product quality and consistency. Internet of Things (IoT) integration enabled real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance of seals, minimizing downtime and maximizing operational efficiency across various sectors, including automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, and manufacturing.
Wiper oil seals, commonly referred to as lip seals or simply oil seals, are mechanical seals used to keep lubricants in and contaminants out of machinery. They are typically made from durable materials such as rubber or elastomers, designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures. The primary function of these seals is to maintain a barrier that prevents the escape of oil, while also preventing dirt, dust, and other contaminants from infiltrating the system.
