If you want a hydraulic system that works well and reliably, good order is key. Thankfully, keeping your hydraulic system in good condition doesn’t have to take a lot of time or effort. Something as simple as keeping it clean pays for itself very quickly.

The complications surrounding oil grades are set to increase for automotive professionals over the coming years, a leading lubricant expert has warned.

The number of different engine oils on the market has soared in the last decade.

One product line, one goal: greater efficiency

There are many complex applications for specialized lubricants in electric and hybrid vehicles, where these lubricants reduce friction and secure the requisite service life. Thermal Fluids are also playing an increasingly important role in electrified vehicles, as established coolants offer only limited suitability for use in drive and battery systems, primarily due to their electrical conductivity. Protecting the sensitive components from environmental influences represents another challenge that we are happy to accept. We find the right solutions for any vehicle both reliably and flexibly – no matter whether for lubrication, cooling, or protection.

The news is full of new electric and hybrid concepts from vehicle manufacturers. At the same time, we are hearing how cities want to ban diesel vehicles on their streets in the not too distant future. These are clear signs that the industry is changing, challenging our ideas of technology, lubrication – and also mobility. Yes, these are certainly exciting times.

FUCHS LUBRICANTS SOUTH AFRICA, a subsidiary of FUCHS PETROLUB SE in Germany, has announced a significant investment in South Africa. The project involves purchase of land, development of the site, warehouse, office complex and lubricants plant.

FUCHS PETROLUB, the world's largest independent lubricant group, is setting a clear signal for global climate protection. From January 1, 2020, the company started manufacturing completely CO2-neutral - a further milestone in FUCHS' sustainable development.

Everyone in the longwall mining business is familiar with the name "SOLCENIC," but are you familiar with the details of what it is, where it is used and why it is used?

Significantly increasing the power density, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of electric drive systems through higher rotational frequency and integration - this is the goal of the joint research project Speed4E launched by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy at the beginning of 2018.

The transmission is an indispensable part of every passenger car. It is responsible for converting the power produced by the engine into torque (rotational force) and for conveying the torque to the wheels to move the car.

TITAN ATF 6006 from FUCHS Lubricants is an Ultra High Performance Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF), specially developed to optimise the shifting performance of ZF automatic transmissions.
