Optimizing food production lines with motion plastics

Food Safe Solution with igubal® Food Contact Spherical Bearings

In food production, bearings need to be suitable for direct food contact without any contamination. One of the most common solutions, metallic ball bearings, require grease to maintain ideal performance, creating a risk of food contamination. Food-safe plastic spherical bearings from igus® don’t require any external lubrication or maintenance, while remaining FDA- and EU-compliant for food contact. igubal® bearings are also metal-detectable, corrosion-resistant, and reduce vibrations.
