Wear-resistant plastic rollers in clamping star wheels double service life

Newly developed two-component rollers in filling machines prove their worth in continuous operation

Problem

  • What was needed: iglidur ® polymer plain bearing, made of the material iglidur® J with TPU-outer jacket as a two-component roll
  • Requirements: The systems run in continuous operation, with up to 66,000 bottles per hour being channelled through in large breweries. A wear-resistant and durable storage solution was therefore needed.
  • Sector: Beverage industry, bottling plants
  • Success for the customer: The iglidur® J roller with TPU outer jacket has turned out to be the ideal solution, because it rotates smoothly and above all wear-free on the axis and ensures smooth operation. Krones no longer has any complaints and the service life has been significantly extended.
