Products for Sugar Mill Industry
Products for Sugar Mill
Sugar is an everyday pleasure, ubiquitous in tea and coffee cups the world over. However; very specific transformation processes must occur so that it may be used by a consumer. Numerous operations involving bearings convert the raw materials (beet/sugar cane) into the finished product. In each of the different phases (i.e. conveying, washing, grinding, pulping), NTN has a technical solution.
We all love sugar… but mechanical parts DO NOT!
Bearings sustain various stresses during the production process:
- Moisture: water and steam throughout the process
- Numerous contaminants: stones, dirt, grass, sugar particles.
- High temperatures: up to 100°C during some phases.
- Production rhythms: the machinery operates 24 hours/day, requiring perfectly balanced lubrication.
- Heavy loads: conveyors transport thousands of tons of raw material daily.
