Customer Story: How a Global Client Boosted Production Efficiency with QIE Hydraulic Press Line

In the competitive oil processing industry, even a 5% improvement in yield or quality can translate into millions in annual savings and market advantage. This case study highlights how a European lubricant manufacturer—based in Germany—partnered with QIE Group to modernize their production line using our advanced hydraulic press system.

The Challenge: Inconsistent Oil Quality & Rising Downtime

The client faced two critical issues:

  • Oil viscosity variation exceeding ±3% across batches due to inconsistent pressure application during refining.
  • Unplanned maintenance every 6 weeks, causing an average of 48 hours of downtime per incident.

These problems were especially problematic in high-volume export markets like Spain and Poland, where precision standards (e.g., DIN ISO 3104) demanded tighter control over physical properties.

QIE’s Solution: Precision + Automation = Consistency

QIE deployed its latest generation hydraulic press line equipped with:

Feature Benefit
Real-time pressure feedback loop (±0.5 bar tolerance) Reduced batch deviation from ±3% to ≤±1%
Automated oil transfer via servo-driven pumps Cut manual handling errors by 90%
Multi-oil compatibility (mineral, synthetic, bio-based) Enabled rapid switching between product lines without reconfiguration

Within three months of installation, the client reported:

  • Yield increase: From 87% to 94% per batch
  • Quality compliance: 100% adherence to ISO 3104 specifications after Q3 2024
  • Downtime reduction: Extended to 12 weeks between maintenance cycles

Impact on Market Competitiveness

The improved consistency allowed the client to enter premium segments in the Middle East and Southeast Asia, where buyers require strict documentation for each batch. Their new ability to produce stable-grade oils at scale helped them win contracts worth €1.2M annually—previously unattainable with older equipment.

As one procurement manager noted: “Before QIE, we were reactive. Now, we’re proactive. The data tells us exactly what we need to optimize next.”

Why Choose QIE? Beyond the Machine

What sets QIE apart isn’t just the hardware—it’s the support. Our engineers work directly with clients during commissioning, providing training tailored to local operating conditions (e.g., humidity levels in coastal plants). We also offer remote diagnostics via IoT-enabled sensors, reducing response time from 72 hours to under 8 hours.

Whether you're producing engine oil, hydraulic fluid, or specialty lubricants, QIE’s hydraulic press line is built to adapt—not just to your current needs, but to your future growth.
