Abstract
A microlubrication system for a machining unit with a rotating spindle, the system having a rotary feedthrough via which compressed air and lubricant can be fed to the rotating spindle to combine them in a mixing chamber close to a tool, and a metering valve by means of which the amount of the fed lubricant can be dosed. In order to improve the monitoring and the control of the system, the rotary feedthrough and/or the metering valve are designed as smart components.
