Plastic pillow block bearings from igus replace metallic solutions and eliminate grease27-03-2018
Pillow block bearings play a central role in the food industry. They are used in the continuously-operating roller conveyors and conveyor belts to ensure that the shafts rotate smoothly under heavy loads. Metallic pillow block bearings require external lubrication, which considerably increases the likelihood of contamination. The process of lubricating metal bearings requires additional time and money, and, more importantly, the combination of external lubricants and corrodible metal does not meet the hygienic requirements of the food industry. Metal bearings also have high friction rates due to their shield and grease filling, which cause the rollers of the conveyor belt to stop rotating and the conveyor to completely wear out. This results in machine shutdown and high downtime costs. |
