About Us

Hagen Automation was born from the pursuit of precision in industrial robotics. Our journey began with a fundamental challenge: developing gearboxes that could deliver the extreme accuracy and longevity demanded by industrial automation whilst withstanding the rigorous demands of continuous operation.

Our Technical Foundation

Through years of developing and deploying industrial robotic systems, we encountered persistent lubrication challenges that existing products simply couldn't solve. Traditional lubricants fell short of the exacting standards required for precision gearboxes operating in demanding industrial environments. This drove us to explore advanced materials including PTFE, tungsten disulphide (WS2), molybdenum disulphide (MoS2), and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN).

Our research and development work focuses on single-compound formulations and precise particle engineering, allowing us to create lubricants with predictable, repeatable performance characteristics. This technical approach attracts experimenters, early adopters, and engineers who demand more from their lubrication solutions than mass-market alternatives can provide.

Beyond Industrial Applications

Our expertise extends beyond factory floors. The Wolfblood Racing brand emerged from a passion for motorsport and cycling, where the same principles of precision lubrication deliver measurable performance gains. Whether it's a racing motorcycle or a cyclist seeking marginal gains, our tungsten disulphide-based products provide the low-friction solutions that competitive applications demand.

Our Niche Focus

We deliberately avoid competing in mass markets. Instead, we serve technical users who understand the value of specialised, high-quality lubricants. Our products are developed in the UK with carefully selected components from trusted suppliers, ensuring consistent quality for applications where performance matters more than price.

Innovation Continues 

Today, we're returning to our automation roots with RoboVigil, our industrial oversight platform that brings vendor-agnostic monitoring to modern manufacturing. This represents the next evolution of our commitment to solving real problems in industrial automation through technical innovation.

Our small, dedicated team continues to push boundaries in both lubrication technology and industrial monitoring, driven by the same engineering rigour that has defined our approach since day one.

Bespoke

 

As well as our own ranges of lubricants we offer white label and bespoke product development and packaging. Specialising in very low volume and high specification products.

We ship everyday to customers around the world including some of the biggest names in motorsport, cycling, industrial technology and many other fields.
