Fish, meat and sausage processing

Overview

In the processing of sausage, fish and meat products, bearing components used in slicing machines or in conveyor technology, for example, are confronted with high demands resulting from the hygiene requirements in food technology and increasing expectations of the performance of the systems. Absolute freedom from lubrication and maintenance, a long service life in continuous operation, chemical resistance and low moisture absorption are just a few examples of the high industry standards.

Products used and application examples

Using the example of a cutting machine with a high-speed discarding system from Treif Maschinenbau GmbH, we show below the central sections of such systems and the use of our polymer storage technology in the work processes. Above all, the following stations should be mentioned here:

1. product holder

2. deposit fork

3. pregripper / loading tower

4. knife edge guide**

Treif Maschinenbau GmbH has been using plastic plain bearings in its food slicing machines for over 20 years. The technical requirements are constantly increasing.

1. material holder
A combination of external stainless steel shafts and drylin® linear foils has proven itself for the linear feed of the product holder by means of a synchronised toothed belt drive.

2. energy supply product grippers
The TH3 energy chain ensures a hygienic and clean supply of media and energy to the individual product grippers.

3. deposit fork
Lubrication- and corrosion-free iglidur ® J polymer bearings are additionally installed in the area of the discard fork for inserting the material to be cut.

4. pregripper / feed tower
Soft stainless steel shafts and linear sliding elements are used to feed the material to be cut in the direction of the cutting blade. The swivel bearing of the feed tower is realised via iglidur ® G polymer bearings.

5. knife edge guidance
Various lubrication-free and corrosion-resistant open and closed drylin® linear plain bearings made of the materials iglidur® J and iglidur® J200 are used in the actual cutting process and the guidance of the knife edge.

Meat roller

This production machine flattens meat slices like a flounder. Previously used susceptible needle bearings were replaced by hygienic and robust iglidur® plain bearings.

Robot gripper

With up to six fingers and in some cases over 100 joints, the gripper is used for packaging sausage and cheese, among other things. iglidur® G bearings ensure a permanently smooth movement.
