Oil-Free Cutting System

The Hygienic Solution for Food-Grade Plastic Recycling

Oil-free cutting systems represent a breakthrough in food-contact plastic processing, eliminating contamination risks while maintaining high-performance shredding capabilities. These innovative systems replace traditional lubricated components with advanced engineering solutions that meet stringent FDA and EU food safety regulations.

Engineered for Purity and Performance

Specially designed cutting chambers utilize self-lubricating composite materials and precision-machined clearances to operate without lubricants. The system incorporates ceramic-coated bearings and food-grade dry film lubricants that withstand extreme pressures while preventing material contamination. Advanced thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures through conductive cooling channels rather than oil-based methods.

Operational Advantages in Food-Grade Applications

During processing, the oil-free system demonstrates remarkable efficiency while preserving material purity. Air-cooled cutting chambers prevent thermal degradation of sensitive polymers, while specialized blade geometries reduce friction through aerodynamic design. The complete absence of lubricants eliminates the risk of bacterial growth in processed materials, a critical factor for food packaging applications. These systems consistently achieve output purity levels exceeding 99.97% contamination-free material.

Critical Design Features

The cutting chamber employs hardened tool steel components with polished surfaces to minimize friction. Magnetic drive systems replace traditional gearboxes, creating a completely sealed power transmission. Food-contact approved non-stick coatings on internal surfaces prevent material buildup. The system incorporates redundant temperature monitoring with automatic slowdown protocols to prevent overheating without coolant intervention.

Maintenance for Continuous Compliance

Rigorous cleaning protocols maintain the system's food-grade status, with steam-cleaning compatibility designed into all components. Wear surfaces require regular inspection with non-toxic, food-safe measurement tools. Bearing systems utilize lifetime-sealed cartridges that never require lubrication. Advanced monitoring systems track component wear rates and predict maintenance needs before performance deviations occur.
