RINGSPANN with its new FBS series freewheels makes life easier for manufacturers of food processing machines and packaging systems. These high-performance complete freewheels for maximum torques of up to 10,000 Nm are made of stainless steel and are therefore extremely resistant to corrosion and chemicals. âYou can even build them into sausage packaging systems for offshore operation if you need toâ?, says Thomas Heubach, director of RINGSPANN. He highlights and compares the special areas of application of the new freewheel series FBS. RINGSPANN manufactures this new FBS series from a special stainless steel defined and specified in close cooperation with renowned technological specialists in materials engineering. âThese freewheels are therefore resistant to corrosion and acids â including nitric acid, which is frequently contained in cleaners and fertilisersâ?, underlines Thomas Heubach.
The stainless freewheels by RINGSPANN are already in use in different food engineering machines. The stainless FBS freewheels by RINGSPANN can, depending on the variant, be built into the drive units as indexing freewheels, overrunning freewheels or backstops and are designed for maximum torques of up to 10,000 Nm. Irrespectively of the variant, the stainless freewheels of the FBS series by RINGSPANN are available in nine sizes with bores of up to 75 mm.
