Hygienic and extreme conditions for rolling bearings and idlers


All products for the food industry must, in addition to the conventional technical requirements, meet the strictest hygiene regulations. Within the scope of this specification, the highest level of safety and reliability must be ensured, as processes in the food industry are usually fully automated and run under the most extreme conditions (cold, heat, moisture, corrosive media).

Food-grade lubricants and optimal seals

By choosing the right lubricant and an optimal sealing solution, our idlers, rolling bearings and track rollers are ideally suited for these conditions. However, the fine dusts of the food industry (e.g. sugar or flour) not only stress the seals, but can also lead to the creation of hazardous explosive atmospheres - here, our ATEX products (e.g. ATEX idlers) ensure your safety.

Our continuous further developments for and experiences from the food industry take care of the reliability of our products. For this reason, our products can be found in a wide variety of applications in the food and beverage industry: whether in hi-tech baking equipment or in lightning-fast beverage filling systems.

Idlers, idler stations and idler garlands specially designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX).
Products for the food industry must comply with the strictest hygiene regulations. Within the scope of this specification, the highest level of safety and reliability must be ensured, as the processes
Track rollers correspond in their internal design to single or double row ball bearings and have a thick-walled, usually crowned outer ring. Optionally, they can be equipped with a combined inner ring
Yoke type track rollers are single or double row roller bearings consisting of a thick-walled, usually crowned outer ring and cylindrical rolling elements (needles or cylindrical rollers). The outer
Radial insert ball bearings are single-row assemblies with a widened inner ring and spherical or cylindrical outer ring. They can be equipped with an optional eccentric locking collar. The internal
Due to the ever-increasing demands on the availability of machines and plants, it is necessary to reduce the number of necessary maintenance intervals and to keep the time required to carry them out
Flanged rollers are designed to absorb predominantly radial forces and are comparable to deep groove ball bearings in terms of their internal structure. Due to the single-sided flange, the flanged
The service life of rolling bearings is largely dependent on the selection of the optimum lubricant. For years, we have been working closely with experts from practice and universities in the field of
