Bearing Supports for Food Processing

Added competence for your success With their trend-setting bearing solutions for ball screw We have added another exceptional partner to our group supports, main spindles, rotary tables and linear of companies – IDAM (INA Drives & Mechatronics), guidance systems, INA and FAG have been leaders on since direct drives and mechatronic solutions are the global market for decades. However, in most cases, increasingly put into operation in production machines. the bearing components alone are not the decisive This means that with the bearing components and the factors for these machine subsystems. right...

C o n t e n t s Our range of products and services for your sector The processes involved in manufacturing foodstuffs must be highly efficient and cost-effective. These processes are usually fully-automated and often take place under extreme operating conditions. This requires a high level Ball bearings Housing units of safety and reliability. This means that high-quality machine components designed for continuous operation are essential. Our contribution: robust bearings with corrosion protection and effective seals that are often lubricated for life for reliable operation around the clock....

FAG Deep groove ball bearings: World champions in application Behind the range of ball bearings offered by Schaeffler stands FAG, a brand that can look back over more than 100 years of tradition. The FAG name continues to stand today for precision, quality, reliability and innovation. Deep groove ball bearings are the most widely used of all rolling bearings. Accordingly, they are often used in food processing and packaging machinery. Cost-effective and readily available Deep groove ball bearings are costeffective, readily available and easy to maintain. We continuously improve and Reliable quality:...

Higher operational safety due to technical superiority INA track rollers with an optimized outer surface are significantly superior to conventional components. The Hertzian pressure at the contact point is always lower than conventional track rollers – with or without tilting. This reduces wear of the mating track. Track rollers as an economic factor Due to their many technical advantages, our track rollers generate an added economic benefit for machine operators, for example in bottling plants. They require little space and operate reliably with low wear. They seldom require No wear on the outside...
