Roller guidance system GFX HYGIENIC

track

Designed for the food and pharmaceutical industries, GFX Hygienic is a precise and durable guidance system for the Beckhoff XTS Hygienic Design, achieving highly flexible motion solutions with optimal cleanability. Cleandown and washdown – GFX hygienic is available in two versions to suit differing customer needs; cleandown and washdown. Cleandown for wet cleaning – Using a structure that is very similar to a standard GFX, this version has been modified to fit the Hygienic Design motors, allowing wet cleaning with benign liquids. Remove surface contamination – The cleandown version is designed for pharmaceutical, food and other processes where the system requires wet cleaning to remove surface contamination. Washdown for cleaning in place – Simple cleaning is possible in hygienically demanding environments, including foaming agents, hot washing and pressure washing. Access to all surfaces – The construction allows complete access to all surfaces, removing pooling traps and enabling optimal cleanability so nothing accumulates. No tiny gaps – Joints between all components are sealed and the bearings are protected against lubricant egress and ‘flushing’ with a solid cover and labyrinth seals. HepcoMotion and Beckhoff – HepcoMotion works in partnership with Beckhoff to create the GFX system, a high-end track system that provides the support and rigidity required for precise XTS applications. Flexible – The Beckhoff XTS Transport System uses linear motor technology to independently drive movers around a track. This allows work processes of different duration to be combined, on the fly product changes, and the addition or removal of workstations as needed.
