In 1975, our founder, Anton (Tony) Orlitzky, started to design what would become a revolutionary change to the lubrication industry: an automatic electronic lubricant dispensing unit.

Previous to his invention, Tony had been working long hours as a maintenance superintendent. He realized that there were many shortcomings in the lubrication industry, especially in the areas of reliability and productivity. The only automatic lubrication device he had seen was quite limited in it's use because it emitted hydrogen gas which was potentially explosive. He envisioned a single-point luber that would work with inert gas so it could be used in hazardous industrial areas.

Consulting with engineers at the University of British Columbia, what was to be a five-minute meeting became hours of brainstorming. The ELECTRO-Luber was possible.

The company, named after the first initials of his three children, flourished and Tony continued inventing new products. The market demands were becoming more diverse and an advancement was needed. In response, he developed the motor-driven ULTIMATE Luber.

Passing of the Torch

Tony Orlitzky passed away in 2006 yet his company continues under the direction of his family. In carrying on his legacy, his son, Stephan has created a completely new line of products based on his father’s strong design. We have rounded out the product line so that we now have single-point, multi-point, and refillable units that come in varying sizes and capabilities: The ULTIMATE series, the TITAN series and the JACK Luber

ATS Electro-Lube has continued under family direction. Tony's two youngest children, Stephan and Tania, assumed running the company. Following Tony's example, the Orlitzky family generously involves itself in bettering it's community; the family strongly believes in customer service and service to fellow man.

Our promise to our customers, both current and future, will be to continue to adapt to market de‍‍‍mands and expand our product line with the same dedication to quality as we always have. You can depend on ATS Electro-Lube to sell only top-of-the-line, versatile, automatic lubrication equipment for your every application.

When you need dependability, safety, consistency and knowledgeable assistance with your lubrication needs, ATS Electro-Lube is the company to turn to.
