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 […]
When its comes to guiding function of an energy chains , we need to ensure a design which is as open as possible and therefore easy to clean, or using materials that may be used in direct contact with food. We incorporated all these requirements into the development and implemented them with the TH3. Also […]
What are dancing rollers- Rollers which are used to feed the labels or films to machines & maintain specified tension to the film is known dancing rollers as they move freely up & down along with the film. What are […]
Different types of shafts are used in packaging , food and beverage industry based on their suitability for the particular application area. For e.g Stainless steel shafts are widely used as they are corrosion resistant , where the application works in moist environment or aggressive cleaning with chemicals is required . Steel shafts […]
