Proper lubrication and maintenance are paramount for these applications because they ensure the machinery's longevity, reduce the potential for breakdowns, and minimize wear. Regular maintenance and lubrication result in smoother operations, less downtime, and reduced repair costs. It's especially crucial in the food industry where any malfunction can have direct consequences on product quality, safety, and production timelines.

The lubricant is designed to operate effectively within a temperature range of -15°C and 150°C in the food industry. This wide range ensures that the lubricant remains stable and continues to provide protection, even under varying temperature conditions commonly encountered in food processing.

The lubricant is especially advantageous for machinery components such as pellet presses, slide ways, chains, water valves, and tap lubrication. These are critical parts in the food industry that require consistent and efficient lubrication to ensure optimal performance and reduce the risk of breakdowns.

In the food industry, bearings and lubrication play a pivotal role in ensuring smooth operations. They are vital for machinery that operates within a speed range of 500 to 6000 RPM and under working temperatures between -15°C and 150°C. Properly lubricated bearings reduce friction, minimize wear, and prolong the lifespan of machinery, resulting in less downtime and more efficient operations.

The lubricant comprises a complex soap, synthetic base oils, and an additive package. This combination ensures enhanced performance, protection against wear, and longevity, making it ideal for challenging food processing environments.

This lubricant is particularly well-suited for use in the animal feed and pet food industry. Machinery in these sectors frequently requires changes and re-applications of grease lubrication, and FOOD-PLUS ALU-COMPLEX SO 2 has been formulated to meet those specific needs.

The primary components of FOOD-PLUS ALU-COMPLEX SO 2 are a synthetic base oil and an aluminum complex grease. The synthetic base oil ensures stability and longevity, while the aluminum complex grease enhances the lubricant's resistance to water and provides excellent anti-wear properties.

The lubricant being described is a food-grade lubricant, which means it is specifically formulated to meet stringent safety and purity criteria for use in food production and processing environments where there may be potential for incidental food contact.
