At Lidering, not only do we manufacture mechanical seals for the food and beverage sector, we also offer custom solutions that drive productivity and guarantee the purity of food products.
In the food and beverage industry, multi-spring mechanical seals are commonly found in double and large-size assemblies, as well as conical spring seals and leaf-spring seals, which guarantee perfect water-tightness with fluids that have a high particle content. And even seals that require a sanitary design to handle SIP and CIP cleaning.
The fact is that the food industry is, and must be, a very demanding sector regarding the safety of its processes. Any cross-contamination in any production phase, whether by the product being prepared or by the water used in the various parts of the process, can put the entire chain at risk and paralyse production lines.
Characteristics of mechanical seals in the food and beverage sector
Our mechanical seals for the food and beverage sector offer industrial solutions due to having products and materials with specific characteristics:
- They are chemically resistant (CIP and SIP processes).
- They comply with various food regulations: FDA, EC 1935/2024, NSF, etc.
- The have formats that guarantee a greater sanitary capacity, and therefore greater ease of cleaning.
- Their springs are isolated to prevent the accumulation of residue.
- Sanitary, if necessary.
Only by using mechanical seals that are suitable for machines in the food industry can we guarantee compliance with the hygiene and safety protocols required of this sector.
Success case: Tomato preserves industry
We can find various models of mechanical seals in every stage of the process in the tomato preserves industry. Every type of mechanical seal in the food and beverage sector plays a crucial role in this industry: from the initial crushing to delicate operations such as the hot break process, sieving, evaporation or pasteurisation, our technology is notable for providing a mechanical seal model for each phase of the process.
