As an Automotive Truck Industry manufacturer of Automated Greasing Systems (AGS), we are looking for test drivers to test the limits on our equipment.
We are specifically seeking Ohio based owner-operators with heavy milage trucks and time-sensitive loads, or trucks with special additional equipment attached to the truck (dump-trucks, cement-trucks, mobile cranes, etc.).
Your Task as a Test Driver
Drive and work! Well, that’s what the job is all about, isn’t it?
We will install a complete Lubecore AGS on your equipment (tractor) to grease everything on your truck automatically. All we ask from you is, you guessed it, drive and work with your truck! Give us updates on your experiences with the system. Aside from never needing to grease your truck by hand anymore (in mud, heat, snow…), you’ll share with us your experiences with the Lubecore system and grease we provide for you for one full year. Save yourself a lot of free time and assist us as we look for data in grease consumption and wear on parts.
If you are a fit, we will contact you to make an appointment for the onsite installation in Ohio and make sure you are all set for your Lubecore AGS test year.
We look forward to having you on our Roadfleet test team.
At Lubecore, we are all about reliability, and not just in these challenging times. An Automated Greasing System you can count on working under all circumstances is our first and primary focus. Secondly, as a Canadian manufacturer, we develop and produce our systems from the ground up locally so we do not depend on deliveries from overseas. Therefore, you can take comfort that Lubecore will deliver. We keep on going for you – safely.
Our Lubecore systems are designed to prevent downtime. As strange as it may sound, due to the current situation, this could be the perfect time to have your existing Automated Grease System (AGS) serviced or replaced by a new Lubecore system.
We are here to help you use any unintended downtime to get your equipment in shape and ready to catch up with the delayed work whenever the COVID-19 situation has come to a more normalized condition again.
In the newsletter, we explain how we can work for you in the safest possible way.
Our Lubecore dealers and service technicians follow these additional guidelines for working on your equipment:
We do not car-pool as we want to keep our technicians safely separated from each other
When scheduling we will be requesting a private bay or outdoor space in the yard to work in
We will make arrangements with you before our dealers and service technicians go to you about how, when and where they will work on the equipment and how they will communicate if there are exceptions (telephone/WhatsApp)
Our technicians will respect social/physical distancing and wear gloves and masks in any situation interacting with you
They will take extra care of cleaning, and sanitize all touch/contact points on the equipment before leaving
Good or bad times, at Lubecore, we are still ready to serve and protect your equipment. It’s your company’s second most significant investment (after your associates).
Safety is the priority for your associate. As long as they are safe, this could be the time to let us work on your equipment in the meantime.
The global spread of the coronavirus presents us with previously unknown challenges. Lubecore has taken extensive measures to protect the health of our employees in the best possible way and at the same time to ensure your continued support.
Our products are, to a large extent, manufactured in-house, which makes us more independent of suppliers. Our production of systems and parts continues to make sure we can deliver whenever needed. We do our utmost best to implement your installation and perform your service appointments on schedule. Our office and service field staff can be reached as usual by phone and e-mail.
Your local Lubecore dealer is your first point of contact for sales or immediate service. If visits to your site are required, they are still possible by mutual agreement.
Whenever you need us, we will do all we can for you.
Due to the highly dynamic nature of the events, we will continually reassess the situation and inform you of any changes.
Your Equipment works hard every day, pushed to the limit in many situations. It needs to perform perfectly. There’s no good reason to gamble with the longevity of your equipment by leaving it unprotected.
Hard-working machines need adequate protection, and so do their owners. That’s why our customers love Lubecore Automated Lubrication Systems (ALS’s). Their machines and their investments are well protected, and so is their production capacity by avoiding downtime.
When you visit Booth S64712 at CONEXPO 2020 in Las Vegas, we would love to tell you all about our ALS’s, and… give you a chance to win a Lubecore ALS for one of your machines. Every day at CONEXPO 2020, someone will win a fully installed Lubecore ALS, and it could be you!
We believe the best gift we can give you is protection.
You’re welcome.

Lubecore Optimum 5th-Wheel Lubrication
Lubecore will be performing fuel economy testing with PIT group ATA approved using SAE protocol.
LO5L will be tested in a controlled environment.
What is LO5L?
LO5L stands for Lubecore Optimum 5th-Wheel Lubrication
I have been in the Automated Lubrication business for 30 years now. From experience we know:
Having a dry 5th-wheel is comparable to having drive axle misalignment (as confirmed by TMC)
Cummins, speaking for fuel economy guide, relates misalignment to fuel economy by a factor of up to 2.2 percent
We will be testing three greases:
Lubecore EP2 chassis grease
Lubecore EP0 chassis grease
Lubecore biodegradable 5th-wheel grease
Our questions for testing are:
Does an under-lubricated 5th-wheel increase fuel consumption?
Does LO5L save fuel and if so, how much?!
If you are interested in finding out more, stop by Lubecore Booth #1640 at TMC, and tell us if you’re interested in finding out the results of these tests later this spring.
You’re welcome!

Lubecore Models Innovation at Manitoba AG Days 2020
The Manitoba Ag Days Show is an exposition of agricultural production, technology, and equipment that attracts exhibitors and visitors from across North America. Professionals, agriculturists, and traders meet and proliferate their knowledge and expertise in the agricultural sector, initiating innovations in farming. The show was held last week in Brandon, Manitoba.
That was the perfect place for Lubecore to display brand new, dedicated Agricultural innovation that can save farmers and operators enormous amounts of time and money, all while eliminating even more dirty work for them.
Lubecore has designed an Automated Greasing System for Air Seeders, or Air Drills as they are often called. A typical machine could contain as many as 70 rows with up to 500 greasing points, costing around $30,000 while only being utilized a few hundred hours per year due to the seasonal duty of the equipment. Lubecore’s new Remote Grease Bank System offers flexibility with 3-5 points per row on the Air Drill, and up to 70 rows concurrently greased easily at a fraction of the costs of a traditional system.
We received very positive responses from visitors to our Ag Days booth, and Lubecore team member Albert Boonstra was happy to demonstrate how farmers and operators can save a lot of money, get rid of some dirty work, and protect their equipment simultaneously.
Do you have any questions? Click here and we will be happy to answer.
Remote Grease Bank System
Equipment maintenance is an important function, but how do you get it all done? Today’s modern Agricultural equipment can have hundreds of locations requiring grease. Often these grease points are critical components that are tucked into hard-to-reach areas, or covered in dirt. When the weather is right, your equipment needs to be making money, not held up for maintenance or repair.
Lubecore’s remote Grease Line System brings the grease points to a safe and convenient location on the equipment. No more crawling over and under your machinery to get a grease job done. No more time wasted cleaning away crud to get access to grease nipple. With less time required to get the job done, you have the confidence that your equipment is being maintained without sacrificing uptime.
Spot a Lubecore
Just another day on the road in Ontario, Canada, spotting Lubecore’s greasing hard-working trucks and keep them moving no matter the conditions, makes us proud.
Did you spot a Lubecore? Click here to send us your picture.
At Lubecore, we value innovation so much it has become a part of our DNA. Over the years we have prided ourselves on continuously raising the bar in the Automatic Lubrication System industry. Starting with fully modular pumps, then adding top springs, and having self bleeding pumps, we continue to innovate.
One of Lubecore’s most recent innovations has been the introduction of the Lubecore S Series injectors, The Super Injector.
A fully self bleeding injector: Our injectors have the capability to pump air through them, making them the only injectors on the market that are self bleeding when air is present in the manifold.
Consistent performance throughout all weather: with a 500 PSI reset pressure the injectors are sure to reload and deliver consistent volume in low-temperature areas and applications!
Superior Life: The injectors have been tested with results of well over 200,000 cycles. This is equivalent to over 100 years worth of cycles!
Exceptional Grease Pressure: The pressure that the pump makes is the pressure that grease is delivered to the point with!
These injectors combined with Lubecore’s 210 Single Line System makes for high performance, low maintenance, mechanic friendly, Automatic Lubrication System!
“I have been in the Automated Lubrication System business for 30 years. The features we designed in these Lubecore Super Injectors are truly going to benefit our customers. This is a new benchmark.”
-Jan Eisses, President

End the Guesswork: Grease Volume Delivered Meter
In order to maintain and run an efficient fleet of vehicles, optimal lubrication is a key component. The problem with manual grease lubrication is that no matter how skilled your mechanic is with a grease gun, there will always be a certain amount of guessing involved. This leads to under/over-lubrication, both of which are harmful and wasteful.
By equipping you to apply just the right amount of grease, Lubecore’s Grease Volume Delivered (GVD) Meter protects your seals from too much or too little lubrication, meets equipment manufacturer requirements, and keeps accurate and up-to-date records.
It’s time to take the guesswork out of manual grease lubrication in order to accurately service your vehicles’ grease-volume requirements.
GVD Meter Benefits
Can be used in conjunction with a grease gun
Displays accurate measurement of the volume delivered to critical grease points
Protects critical bearings, and reduces downtime from both over and under-lubrication
Can be used in combination with a progressive divider valve
Volume of grease going into a number of grease points is controlled by a progressive divider which regulates the ratio and volume of grease per point
Each grease point receives the correct volume according to design specifications
Total volume of grease required for the group of points is known, and the GVD Meter measures and records the volume delivered to the entire group of grease points
Responsibility for meeting lubrication requirements lies with the machine operator
Responsibility to measure and record grease delivered lies with the equipment operator
Automatic grease-to-grease point delivery
GVD Meter is attached to the progressive divider valve, which is fed by an automatic grease-based lubrication system
Pump delivery is set to meet manufacturer’s greasing requirements by an electronic timer
Grease is delivered in small portions during operating hours instead of in single, manual applications
Amount of grease delivered is measured and recorded
Manual override is allowedGVD Meter can be installed in a series in the mainline of an Automated Lubrication SystemEquipment running hours are measured
Installing the GVD Meter on your vehicles will reduce component wear and tear, save on maintenance and labour costs, and improve fuel efficiency.
With a bulletproof product-line serving a wide range of industries from road fleets, agricultural, heavy equipment up to industrial applications, Lubecore is looking for dealers who meet our dealer standards. We want dealers who want to sell and install Lubecore systems and grow a satisfied customer base. North America (and some parts of Canada) is full of potential for you with Lubecore. As a Lubecore dealer, you serve and help customers to protect their investment, and avoid downtime without having to do the dirty work themselves anymore.
We are looking for motivated technical people who want to invest time in themselves and grow their expertise from there, being successful in the field. It’s an exciting world out there in the realm of Lubecore: being free, having your own business, representing a high-quality product, and adding value for your customers. Lubecore will train you and your team to become an all-around Lubecore representative. Dealer size is dependent on the area but can range from a small dedicated team up to a significant regional truck-dealer who incorporates Lubecore in its product and service portfolio.
After years of perfecting our products, building a great team, and starting our in house design and production of parts and systems, we are ready to shift to the next gear and accelerate in this new year of growth.
We will add new dealers in Canada and the USA while restructuring our dealer network and distribution. Making sure everybody knows his task and can give his utmost best in doing so.
While growing, our primary focus will remain the end-user satisfaction. The man or woman operating the equipment with our Lubecore system on it needs to be able to depend on it to work flawlessly under any condition. And, in the unlikely event, it doesn’t work, we, together with our dealers, need to be able to solve it as quickly as possible. We believe in satisfied customers being the best ambassadors for our brand.
A product is only the best on the market if combined with the best possible service. That’s what we are after and will deliver. By doing so, we will accelerate our dealers business, his customer’s business, and finally our own business as a manufacturer.
We will keep you updated on a regular basis through newsletters showing you how we grow and make our dealers and end-users happy with great products and excellent service.
Accelerate with us in this next gear and new year May 2020 bring you health, happiness and prosperity.
