Plas­tic parts for pack­a­ging machines

Effi­ci­ency and relia­bi­lity are enorm­ously important for pack­a­ging machine manufacturing.
Our plas­tic parts help to meet these requi­re­ments, e.g. through our sliding and wear-opti­mi­zed plas­tics, which can save energy and main­ten­ance costs. In addi­tion, plas­tics can often be used in envi­ron­ments that are proble­ma­tic for metals or require special (expen­sive) alloys. In special steri­liza­tion and clea­ning proces­ses, plas­tics are often not criti­cal. A wide range of plas­tics allows us to respond to our custo­mers’ needs and produce appli­ca­tion-opti­mi­zed parts that allow higher volu­mes to be packa­ged with increased efficiency.

In the field of pack­a­ging machi­nery, plas­tics are mainly used that have the follo­wing properties:

• low weight – energy efficiency
• High mecha­ni­cal strength, stiff­ness and dimen­sio­nal stability
• impro­ved sliding & fric­tion properties
• High wear resis­tance and impact strength
• redu­ced noise
• ELS – or AST plas­tics for ATEX applications
• High chemi­cal resistance
• Tempe­ra­ture resistance
• Good damping or resto­ring behavior
