Packaging industry
Efficient plastic solutions for the packaging industry: durable, hygienic and tailored to modern packaging systems.
High-quality plastic parts for the packaging industry
In the packaging industry, wear-resistant, precise and economically manufactured components are in demand. We manufacture plastic parts for the packaging industry that are designed for good sliding properties, high cycle rates, reliable function and long service lives. Depending on the application, these become guides, sliding components, covers, spacers and other technical components for packaging machines, conveyor technology and production lines.
Why plastics are used in the packaging industry
Plastic components in the packaging industry are used wherever low friction, good cleanability, chemical resistance and precise machinability are required. Suitable engineering plastics help to design production processes economically and to adapt components to the respective machine function in a material-appropriate way.
- good sliding and wear properties
- low weight compared with metal alternatives
- resistance to moisture and many cleaning media
- precise machinability for technical components
- good suitability for individual geometries and machine components
Our services for the packaging industry
We support companies in the packaging industry in selecting suitable materials and manufacturing suitable plastic components. Materials such as POM-C, PE 1000, PTFE and other engineering plastics are frequently used when sliding, low-wear and easily machinable materials are required.
Among other things, guides, sliding components, covers, spacers, technical cut pieces and other machined components are manufactured. In addition to simple semi-finished product cut pieces, individual parts are also produced to drawing, sample or dimensional specification for packaging machines, conveyor systems and automated lines.
Typical plastic components in the packaging industry
Our plastic parts for the packaging industry are used in many technical areas. These include, among others:
- guides and slide rails
- sliding plates and wear parts
- covers and protective components
- spacers and technical cut pieces
- components for conveyor and feed systems
- components for packaging, folding and filling systems
Which plastics are suitable for the packaging industry?
Which materials are suitable depends on cycle rate, friction, medium, temperature and tolerance requirement. POM-C is frequently used for dimensionally stable and easily machinable components. PE 1000 is suitable for sliding and wear-exposed applications. PTFE is used where particularly low friction and high chemical resistance are required.
Advantages of our plastic components in the packaging industry
Our plastic solutions help to design packaging processes economically, reliably and durably. They reduce friction, minimise wear and can be precisely adapted to existing machines and installation situations. This results in technical components for demanding applications in packaging, conveying and automation.
