Quality Plastic Gears for Food & Beverage Production
Due to their lightweight, rust-proof, and food-safe properties, plastic gears are ideal for use in a range of machinery involved in food production.
Typical processes and machinery that benefit from plastic gears include:
- Belt and screw conveyor systems.
- Mixing and kneading machines.
- Slicers and cutters.
- Processing equipment for pasta, chocolate, ice cream, meat, etc.
- Vertical and horizontal packaging machines.
- Automatic washing and sanitising machinery.
- Cooling and pasteurisation tunnels.
Plastic gears offer additional advantages, such as quieter operation than other gear materials; they require less lubrication and have faster production times. They are corrosion-resistant, so can withstand regular cleaning.
