Solutions for lubricants R&D

Our solutions to boost your lubricants R&D workflows in a fully automated and digitalized way.

Lubricants Industry Applications - Petroleum and Oil Analysis Laboratory Automation

Accelerate your existing workflow

Research and development departments in the lubricant industry face many challenges.

The need for highly innovative products with superior performance, strict regulatory requirements, sustainable chemicals while coping with restrictions on additives are some of the most critical.

High reproducibility, sustainable knowledge preservation and up/downscaling sensitivity are key factors for these groups.

Chemspeed provides high throughput and high output solutions which accelerate, standardize and digitize your R&D without compromise and enables faster systematic investigation of your:

  • Raw material space
  • Process space
  • Testing space


These solutions simultaneously result in better performing, more cost effective lubricants as well as a more robust and effective production process.

Fully automated solution for quality control

Chemspeed's FLEXSHUTTLE is the step-changing solution for quality control workflows.This solution, as with all Chemspeed systems, can be easily expanded at virtually any time (higher throughput, modified specifications, features, workflows, etc.).

Automated versatile gravimetric solid dispensing

Chemspeed's FLEX POWDERDOSE with its proprietary overhead gravimetric solid dispensing / dosing (mg to g) and our user-friendly software allow you to automatically dispense virtually any powder / solid and extrudate into any type of destination.

Automated versatile gravimetric solid dispensing

Automated gravimetric solid dispensing / dosing - precision, accuracy, speed, data integrity (incl. applications in GMP environments).

End-to-end DSC sample preparation

Step-change in end-to-end DSC sample preparation - gravimetric pick & decision dispense of solids / matrix-to-matrix reformatting.

Fully automated formulation development, optimization and characterization

Automated development, optimization, and characterization of formulations using no manual intervention.

Automated lubricant formulation

FLEX FORMAX lubricants for unattended formulation and testing of lubricants (oils, greases) plus integrated „forced“ testing e.g. via rapid temperature cyling, gasification combined with defined contaminant. FLEX FORMAX fulfills the requirements for process technology (e.g. shearing and composition series). The solution enables raw material mapping / reformulation, e.g. related to REACH.

Fully automated rheology measurement

Chemspeed’s FLEX RHEO allows fully automated rheology measurement for various workflows, using  Discovery HR rheometers, or other rheometers, for “Press Start and Walk Away” operation. With optional extras, including robotic pH measurement tool, screw capper and extended storage capacity, this Chemspeed configurable solution transforms the traditional rheology analysis process.

Automated overhead gravimetric viscous liquid, paste, or wax dispensing

Overhead gravimetric viscous liquid, paste, wax dispensing WHILE sample processing (e.g. heating / cooling, mixing).

Automated gravimetric compound / substance handling and preparation

Versatile compound / substance handling for e.g. analytical sample preparation, reaction preparation, formulation, application and testing preparation.

Automated sample preparation and viscosity measurement

Automatically dispense virtually any product (low to high viscosity liquids, pastes, even melted waxes) and subsequently measure its viscosity with our proprietary overhead gravimetric dispensing technology in combination with our software.
