Abstract

An improved conveyor lubricating system for applying a multi-ingredient lubricating composition to a conveyor. The system includes a holding tank which is operatively connected to a plurality of separate supply tanks where each of the ingredients of the composition are contained in a concentrated form. Pumping bodies are provided for separately pumping each of the concentrated ingredients into the holding tank in any desired ratio. Water is then added into the holding tank to dilute the concentrated ingredients and form the lubricating composition. A pump is provided for pumping the lubricating composition from the holding tank to the conveyor.
