Metalforming
Eliminate the costly mess and waste of lubricating coil, blank and sheet stock
Take a look at your shop floor where you lubricate your metal stock. If you see coolant…you have more than a mess. That is wasted money on the floor. Our metalforming customers tell us that they dump up to half their lubricant supplies onto the floor (and everything else within overspray distance) when they use traditional lubrication methods.
So we invented the uni-Roller™ system to help you cut:
- Fluid waste by 50 to 80%
- clean-up costs (labor and cleaning supplies)
- coolant treatment and disposal costs
- plus, costs associated with shortened die component and tool life caused by improper lubrication.
You’ll gain even tighter control over your lubricant usage and budget when you combine your uni-Roller with a programmable SPR-2000 or SPR-2000-JR.
Choose your system from these applications:
Blank Stock Coating [visit page] —This system applies the exact amount of lubricant across the surface of the stock so there’s no oily mess. Your tool and die components last longer. Part quality improves, and you can run your production lines faster. read more
Powered uni-Roller [visit page] — Combined with a SPR-2000 or SPR-2000-JR programmable fluid controller, this system applies an even coat of lubricant across the top and bottom of the blank.
Coil Stock Coating [visit page] — Apply lubricant smoothly and evenly on both sides of continuous coil stock using the patented uni-Roller System. read more
Type C [visit page] — Patented design offers the perfect solution for line speeds less than 100-feet per minute (30.5 m/minute) or for low-budget operations. A positive displacement lubricant pump injects lubricant once per roller revolution into the roller so it delivers the right amount of lubricant every time.
Type S [visit page] — Combine this patented design with a SPR-2000 or SPR-2000-JR programmable fluid controller and you could see a return on investment within six months. This unique design lets you control lubrication by zones so you almost have limitless unit size over the standard 69 inches. 
mini-Roller [visit page] — Choose from a vertical or horizontal configuration to continuously lubricate narrow and thin coil stock. You’ll immediately see a cleaner shop, less lubricant waste and improved part quality.
- Programmable Fluid Control [visit page] — This fluid system controls how much and how often lubrication flows into one or more fluid application systems. read more
SPR-2000 [visit page] — Engineered to precisely and reliably control lubrication flow from up to 22 different outputs. Use with one of these systems: uni-Roller™ Type S, mini-Roller, Powered uni-Roller and/or spray nozzle systems.- SPR-2000 Jr. [visit page] — This economical alternative controls lubrication flow from up to two outputs. Use with one of these systems: uni-Roller™ Type S, mini-Roller, Powered uni-Roller or spray nozzle systems.
Fluid Systems and Accessories [visit page] — UNIST is your source for uni-Roller original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts and components, plus programmable fluid controller products. read more
Nozzles [visit page] — Choose from articulated arm or flexible plastic nozzles.
Covers [visit page] — Choice of polyester or polyurethane roll cover materials.
Fluid Systems [visit page] — A key component to consistent lubrication is a fluid supply system that suits your application. We offer a broad range of equipment to give you excellent results day after day.
Options [visit page] — Flow sensors monitor each valve to verify that there is fluid flow when the valve is actuated (for SPR-2000 only).

"We were using a paint roller to apply the lubricant which took away quite a bit of the operator's time. The coating was uneven and this did not help the die life."
