Packaging
Knife edge rollers are designed to reduce the gaps and ensure safe transfer of small parts from one conveyor belt to another. Especially in the food & packaging industry, during transfer of small food products like cookies, cakes, biscuits, pasta products, they may slide into the gap between the two conveyor belts if there is a […]
In the Packaging, food & beverage industry, implementation of precise format adjustments is a must for maximizing the flexibility of machines & equipments like filling or labelling machines for bottles or cans or also for equipments for entry lanes in beverage industries. To solve this problem, igus supplies you with machine components made of high-performance […]
Most packaging machines have a number of format adjustments. They are often made with trapezoidal lead screw nuts and a corresponding lead screw. Many format adjustments still involve metallic lead screw nuts. To work smoothly, they need lots of lubricant. The dirty environment means that regular re-greasing and maintenance are necessary. Instead of focusing on […]
igus, develops maintenance-free and above all lubrication-free solution for transport and guide rollers, which are made of blue light weight PVC tube and FDA-compliant two fixed flange ball bearings made up of in-house material xirodur B180 and stainless steel balls under the brand name xiros. These xiros guide rollers are particularly important for labelling, packaging and food applications due […]
Our health is our most important possession and no components of the bearings or linear guide should ever harm it in anyway. Where there is possible contact with food, the requirements placed on each component are different from those in other cases. The linear guide system, i.e. guide rails, shafts, linear bearing housings, screws and […]
With the changing times, the Indian Pharma industry is witnessing dynamic changes & are adopting advanced technologies for their machines , manufacturing processes , packaging techniques and other related aspects , so as to achieve greater output & higher productivity without any compromise on the strict hygiene standards & to maintain the safety of the […]
Whether in dosing systems, on conveyor belts of filling systems or in labelling technology: you will find sheet metal and parts that are exposed to friction and wear in all these places. To increase the service life of the metallic components, igus has developed new coating material IC-05 which is compliant with FDA as well as […]
Anti-static component properties along with lubrication free, suitability for intensive cleaning agents , hygienic design & long service life are indispensable in packaging technology. The different packaging machines like thermoforming machines , Form,fill & seal machines , labelling machines, blister packaging machine , uses rollers for film deflection and may face some of the below […]
The Meat processing industry and it machines e.g steaks , fillets or sausages processing machines need to be tough and easy to clean. In this machines to fight germs the most aggressive cleaners and lots of water is use. As the application environments are critical the machine components like bearings will function in long run […]
The component service life plays an important role in the packaging and beverage industries, as the machines operate at high frequencies. During transportation activity ,there are various options for reductions of scratch marks and even damage. The service life of a glass beverage bottle is limited by the degree of damage to its exterior. Since […]
