As food processing equipment is used to produce food, it must not only ensure safety but also facilitate equipment maintenance. Food and beverage processors and OEMs face ongoing pressures, such as the need to optimise production, reduce costs and comply with health, safety and environmental regulations; they are seeking new technologies and services to address these business challenges. ‘Food-grade’ is often equated with food-grade seals, food-grade lubricants and corrosion-resistant bearing units; we are now raising the bar by supporting proactive food safety through the provision of fully sealed, permanently lubricated food-safe bearing units designed to enhance bearing performance.
Applications such as washing, sorting, grading, peeling, separating and mixing require large quantities of water or other liquids. High humidity, combined with corrosive cleaning agents and contaminants, can damage bearing seals and cause corrosion issues. Lubricant loss and bearing failure often follow in quick succession, leading to increased maintenance requirements and risks to worker safety. Many raw materials are subject to seasonal constraints, so they must be processed as soon as possible upon arrival. Equipment operating parameters are pushed to their limits, accelerating wear and increasing the risk of unplanned downtime. With reliable bearing units, you can reduce maintenance costs even in demanding processing environments. As the equipment no longer requires relubrication and has a longer service life, food and beverage manufacturers can save significantly on maintenance costs and increase the potential for higher output. All components feature a hygienic design and require no additional lubrication; the time required to clean open units is reduced by 33 per cent, enabling you to achieve longer periods of uninterrupted production, helping to minimise unplanned downtime, reduce maintenance costs and lower the potential risk of contamination on food production lines.
Food processing machinery is subject to increasingly stringent requirements regarding the control of operational and maintenance costs, the enhancement of operational efficiency, and the assurance of safe and reliable production. In recent years, the safety and hygiene of processed foods have faced severe challenges. As key components of food processing machinery, the appropriate use of bearings has become a vital pillar of efficient and safe production.
From raw material processing equipment, processing machinery and filling systems to packaging systems, we provide new technological services (including new materials technology and lubrication technology) tailored to each production stage, offering customised solutions to help food machinery achieve its full production potential.
