Castrol cure for Austin's reactionary robots

Abstract

CASTROL'S industrial know‐how has borne important fruit in the world of robotics. Castrol helped Austin Rover and Unimation, the world's largest industrial robot makers, cure a critical problem on the embryonic Metro line at Longbridge in 1980 and now, the product involved, Castrol's Anvol SW68 hydraulic lubricant is the sole specified flame‐retardant fluid for all Unimation robots. With the need to safeguard both manpower and investment increasing all the time flame‐retardant products can be critical to acceptance by industry.
