Cam roller for bottling line

Background

In recent years the performance needed for components of bottling lines have continued to increase (higher speed, resistant to caustic cleaning agents and fillers, longer life).
Cam rollers deteriorate quickly due to excessive loads and a very aggressive environment (one which rusts even stainless steel).
A solution that allows for a better resistance and longer life is needed due to difficult application mechanical conditions or chemical conditions.
The lubrication of the roller needs to satisfy to the food industry requirements.

Using a patented stainless steel which has superior corrosion resistant (Steenox).
A specific external profile of the outer ring effective bonding of the overmold.
The overmold material is optimized for heavy loads and at high speeds.
Special grease for use in food environment.

New JESA stainless steel (Steenox), with excellent properties for an aggressive environment.
Optimized design for the outer ring of the bearing, to provide a perfect fit of the overmold.
Suitable overmold material with optimum Shore hardness for low wear.
Use of a specific grease, suitable for heavy loads and approved for the food industry.

A significantly higher roller lifetime, greatly reducing machine downtime.
Reduced maintenance costs with a considerable intervals between maintenance.
Use of a greased roller instead of a plain bearing lubricated with water.
Increased performance of the bottling system machine with a high quality product, which reinforces the manufacturer’s leading position in the market.
