Cleaning technology

Overview

For the storage of bottles in the washing chain, the automated unscrewing and emptying of bottles or the lifting station for cleaning, plain bearings are used above all, but also stainless steel shafts and drylin® linear bearings from our product portfolio. Components are used here that work reliably and without the use of lubricants despite constant cleaning intervals.

Products used and application examples

Six important stations are shown below, from feeding the bottles into the washing process to the lifting station and the beverage container transfer area. The user report of a modern washing system for kegs - the Innokeg AF-C Transversal from KHS - is linked on the right.
