In a major development for industrial maintenance, UE Systems, a global leader in ultrasonic technology, has partnered with perma USA, the frontrunner in single-point lubrication systems, to unveil a first-of-its-kind automated lubrication and condition monitoring solution.
The collaboration has resulted in the launch of UltraTrak VARIO, integrated into UE Systems’ OnTrak Wireless platform. This system merges automated lubrication with real-time ultrasound, vibration, and temperature monitoring, offering industrial operators a powerful tool for predictive maintenance and equipment reliability.
The innovation aims to transform how critical rotating equipment is maintained, enabling maintenance teams to precisely lubricate assets while continuously monitoring health metrics. By integrating UE Systems' expertise in ultrasonic technology with perma’s automated lubrication solutions, UltraTrak VARIO eliminates guesswork and helps prevent failures related to over or under-lubrication.
This wireless, data-driven approach to condition-based lubrication is expected to drive substantial efficiency improvements across manufacturing, energy, and processing industries—particularly where unplanned downtime incurs significant cost.
The partnership is being seen as a strategic step forward in Industry 4.0, as it advances predictive maintenance from periodic checks to continuous, smart monitoring.
