Gearbox lubrication challenges in the bratt pan

Sector: food industry

Initial situation

The production department of a Bolognese sauce manufacturer was facing significant challenges in their work. One of the main issues was leakage caused by the lubricant used for the bratt pan gearbox, which was unable to withstand the demanding working conditions. As a result the sauce gets contaminated 2-3 times a year, leading to the disposal of 700 kg of product produced at each occurrence.
 

Our solution

To address this problem we proposed Interflon Food Grease 000.

Result
 

As a result of the application of Interflon MicPol® technology, the problem of leakage and the associated production waste will be permanently resolved. This will lead to increased output and a reduced environmental impact. Additionally, the solution will also eliminate the disposal of more than 2,000 kg of contaminated cleaning rags annually. The annual savings are projected to exceed €8,000.

Advantages

  • No more oil leaks: By using Interflon Food Grease 000, the issue of oil leakage will be completely resolved.
  • Reduced canned waste: The elimination of sauce contamination will significantly reduce the amount of wasted canned sauce.
  • Lower environmental impact: Decreased environmental impact by preventing sauce contamination and subsequent waste.
  • Increased output: By eliminating the leakage and related production issues, the overall output of the production department will be improved.
