The range of benefits offered by thermoplastics have resulted in their use being widespread in the food processing and packaging industries. Higher demands are made on production components with increased frictional heat, more wear, aggressive and hotter cleaning cycles.

 

Material selection can become a REAL challenge... From chopping boards to star wheels, rollers, guide rails, sprockets, screws and machine guarding, the many advantages of thermoplastics cannot be overlooked.

 

Thermoplastics can successfully replace traditional materials like bronze, stainless steel, cast iron, wood and ceramics. Thermoplastics offer:

 

Broad chemical resistance = Will not be affected by cleaning agents.

Reduced weight resulting in lower interia forces = Machines can run faster

Excellent strength with good impact resistance

Excellent corrosion resistance

Excellent mechanical damping properties = Reduced noise

Increased part life = Cost Reduction

Improved wear in unlubricated conditions

Thermal and electrical insulation properties
