Food should be free of harmful or incompatible chemicals, such as those found in common, industrially used lubricants. However, a simple conversion to food grade grease is rarely possible because the corresponding gearboxes are not designed for this. Nidec Graessner solves this problem and offers its customers 3 different options:

1. Standard shaft with food grade grease: Due to the design for food grade lubricants, safe machine handling of food is guaranteed.
2. Stainless steel shaft with Food Grade Grease: Highest food safety due to the combination of Food Grade Grease lubrication and stainless steel, which is easy to clean.
3. Stainless steel shaft with standard lubricants: Suitable for applications that do not have direct contact with food but are close to it and must be correspondingly easy to clean.

The high-quality standards of Nidec Graessner apply to all three options, which consist in the compact design, freedom from maintenance and high load capacity with outstanding accuracy.
