Guide for food machinery designers

Energy chain selection for hygiene-sensitive areas

What is hygienic design and what do the standards require?
What are the requirements for cable guidance in food-contact machines?
How did Schiwa, one of the world's leading manufacturers of slicing systems for the sausage, ham and cheese industry, meet these challenges?

Those and other topics await you in this new guide for food machinery designers.

TH3 energy chain in slicing systems

FDA-compliant TH3 energy chain proves itself in demanding Schiwa systems under heavy load. It is easy to clean, FDA-compliant, has no screw connections and is ideally suited for aggressive cleaning agents and chemicals. The energy chains have been running for more than two years without any complaints

TH3 energy chain in the mushroom harvesting system

Harvest, cut, and pack each mushroom by hand? This is costly, but still standard in the mushroom industry. So far. Because, Northern Ireland-based Axis Technology and Development is developing a semi-automatic harvesting system. For the cable management in the plant, the e-chains® of the TH3 series are used, which are suitable for the food sector. The energy supply systems are designed according to hygienic design guidelines and are resistant to aggressive cleaning agents and chemicals. They also operate reliably in high humidity, which is common in the mushroom industry.

Product range:

The energy chain TH3 is available with a choice between two inner heights and four inner widths for each of these heights. The up to four fixed interior segments are possible for both sizes. This means that cables and hoses can be laid completely separately from each other and yet have sufficient gaps for cleaning purposes.
