Food & Beverage

In the Food and Beverage Industry, bearings must perform with the highest degree of reliability while battling food particles and subjection to continual cleaning. In this industry, hygiene and safety are just as important as efficiency and production quotas. That's why NSK's food-grade products not only conform to sanitation requirements but withstand the rigors of frequent wash downs, detergents, chemical exposures and a wide range of temperature changes from -20°C to 150°C.

 

Bearings for the Food & Beverage Industry

EM/EW SERIES

Our EM series has greater cage strength performance than that of conventional M-type cages with noise levels 5 dB lower than competitive two-piece cage designs. Stress levels of NSK’s EM series cages are also 50% lower than that of major competitors.

The EW series is 3 to 7 dB quieter than that of our major competitor and offers greater cage strength performance. Tests confirm that the stress levels of NSK’s EW series cages are 40% lower than that of cages in conventional W series.

• Greater number of larger rollers
• Roller-guided cage
• High strength and wear-resistant cage
• Well-balanced one-piece cage design

• 30% higher load rating
• Trouble-free packing of grease
• Quieter operation
• Higher limiting speed
• High strength, low noise
