The packaging sector is one of the areas where plastic materials are most widely used. High-performance plastics are commonly employed both in the internal components of packaging machines and in the equipment used to transport products.
Advantages:
- Easy to process with long service life
- Low friction and high wear resistance
- Self-lubricating, requiring no additional lubrication
- Low coefficient of thermal expansion, allowing for tight-tolerance production
- Hygienic and easy-to-clean surfaces
- High performance even at very low temperatures
- Excellent resistance to chemicals
- Lightweight, energy-efficient, and quiet operation
Applications:
- Conveyor guides, star wheels, and chain guides
- Chain and sliding bearings, rollers, and scrapers
- Cutting surfaces, blades, sliding plates, and valves
- Filling, bottling, handling, and labeling machines
- ESD-protected components in automated packaging lines
