Welcome to JA Lube Central

Each Centralized Lubrication system is designed specifically for your application. Using common parts, the system is customized for your specific vehicle ensuring that all lubrication points are covered. Systems are available in both 12 and 24 volt and for various lubricants.

How it works

An electronic control unit installs in the cab of the vehicle to provide monitoring through an LED display and controls both lubricating time and pause time. A manual override pushbutton allows the operator to override the timing and lubricate the system. This is especially important in dusty environments or when a short term change in scheduling is required.

When the control unit calls for lubrication an electrical gear pump charges post lubrication distributors with lubricant. The self contained pump unit comes complete with mounting brackets and an optical level indicator and can be installed to allow easy filling.

Each lubrication point is provided its own spring loaded post lubrication distributor. These distributors keep the grease under up to 350 pounds of pressure until the surface to be lubricated is unloaded by normal travel. When unloaded the distributor injects a metered amount of grease into the bearing. This lubrication process is much more efficient than manual lubrication while the vehicle is stationary.

Our History

The company started as a proprietorship under the name of Joe Ahrens Special Services on May 1st 1973. The goal of this initial company was to provide Hampton Roads, Virginia expertise in Machine Tool Automation and Machine Tool Productivity improvements.

From the outset, the company was growing by word of mouth, and by an increasing number of European companies locating in Hampton Roads and subcontracting the company as support for start up. Stihl Incorporated, the chainsaw manufacturer, was the first account. The company was growing rapidly and to secure the future, it was incorporated in October 1976.

As the company grew different business segments were defined leading Joe Ahrens, Inc to split of into three companies: Joe Ahrens Inc. continued to consult, Newport Machine Tool Corp. provided machine tools, and Die Tool and Mold, Inc. performed contract manufacturing services.

In the spring of 1982 Joe Ahrens, Inc secured a distribution agreement from Willy Vogel AG, of Germany, a manufacturer of centralized lubrication systems and components. Vogel had no representation in North America and Joe Ahrens, Inc filled the gap.
