BALINT Coatings for Food Processing and Packaging
By Oerlikon Balzers
Oerlikon Balzer's BALINT coatings can be used on machines for a number of food processing applications including meat grinding, piston pumps, and wine bottling systems.
Food processing machinery components work in a corrosive, abrasive, and non-lubricated environment. Typically, either soft stainless steels or hardened martensitic steels are used. They are just about adequate for coping with the demands of resistance to abraisive wear and galling.
BALINT coatings have significantly higher hardness and lower friction, enhancing the wear life of many different components.
