About Promet Schmierstoffe GmbH & Co. KG
We see ourselves as an application-oriented specialty manufacturer and consulting partner for extrusion plants and metal forming. Our core competency is the targeted formulation and adjustment of high-temperature lubricants for demanding production environments.
Practical Development & Application Engineering
The development of process-stable release media requires precise knowledge of the chemical and physical conditions in the tool gap. At our site in Weeze, we analyze the required lubricant properties directly tailored to the thermal and mechanical conditions of your equipment.
In addition to standard methods such as determination of kinematic viscosity, we characterize release waxes using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA under N₂ atmosphere) to guarantee 100% ash-free pyrolysis. Using high-load tribometry, we simulate friction conditions at surface temperatures above 1000°C.
TGA / DSC Analytics
Analysis of evaporation behavior to prevent residues.
High-Temperature Tribometry
Determination of dynamic friction coefficients under real-condition surface pressures.
Development & Testing
Accredited Quality Management
Engineering Support
Our application engineers come from metallurgy, materials science, and rheology. We evaluate friction values and wear indicators analytically at the level of your process engineers.
On-Site Process Audits
Media approval is granted exclusively on the basis of a standardized on-site parameter intake, recording application quantities, pressure distribution, and spray cycles.
Supply Chain Redundancy
Through full-stage raw material synthesis and strategic raw material stocking, we ensure continuous supply for extrusion plants even during global supply shortages.
3 Steps to Tribological Approval
We analyze the tribomechanical load spectra of your extrusion and drawing plants for the targeted design of high-temperature-resistant release and sliding media.
Tribometric Parameter Intake
Recording of tool geometries, forming speeds, shear rates, and peak thermo-mechanical loads.
Practical Formulation
Optimizing melting profile, viscosity, and thermal behavior for residue-free evaporation under operating conditions.
Validation vor Ort
Metrologically supported trial run to record surface quality and die lifespan limits.
