Cleaning technology

Overview

For cleaning purposes, mainly plain bearings but also stainless steel shafts and drylin linear bearings from our product portfolio are used for the support of bottles in the washing chain, the automated unscrewing and emptying of bottles or in the lifting station. Here, dependence is placed on components that work reliably and at the same time without the use of lubricants, despite continual cleaning.

Used products and application examples

In the following, six important stations are shown, from the feeding of the bottles into the cleaning process via the lifting station to the transfer area of the beverage containers. On the right, there is a link to the user report regarding a modern washing system for kegs - the Innokeg AF-C Transversal from KHS.
