Product Focus: Stainless Steel Gearboxes

The highest standards of hygiene

The increasing automation of the food and pharmaceutical industries demand high hygiene standards. When the gearboxes come into direct contact with product, they need to be appropriately conceived to withstand intensive cleaning cycles. For this purpose, they must be corrosion-proof and the surfaces designed to have as few holes and gaps as possible, which would otherwise facilitate the growth of bacteria and microorganisms. The exterior components of the gearboxes are made of food-grade materials and filled with NSF H1 lubricants.

The properties of stainless steel gearboxes make them suitable for other applications as well. In particular, this includes situations where maximum corrosion protection is crucial, such as applications involving seawater or outdoor installation.
