Paper industry
High-quality, quiet, and durable components for process systems
In paper manufacturing plants, production continuity is essential. The plastic materials machined by Tecno Plastic are carefully selected to produce components capable of withstanding mechanical stress, abrasion, chemical agents, inks, and adhesives.
Compared to metal, they offer longer service life and reduced maintenance requirements, improving the overall reliability of the production line.
Problems solved in the paper industry
- Premature wear of metal components
- High operating noise
- Frequent production stoppages for maintenance
- Sensitivity to chemical substances and humid environments
Advantages of plastic materials in paper mills
- Chemical resistance to inks, adhesives, and aggressive agents
- Reduced weight → lower inertia and less wear
- Noise reduction and improved acoustic comfort
- High wear resistance even in humid or abrasive environments
- Smooth sliding and consistent precision over time
Recommended materials
- PE – Low friction, moisture resistance, excellent machinability
- PTFE – Non-stick and resistant to adhesives and chemical agents
- PA6G – Cast nylon with high mechanical strength and stability
- POM – High precision and excellent sliding properties for guides and gears
- PET – High rigidity and resistance to wear and creep
Typical applications
- Gears and rollers in high-load areas
- Sealing rings resistant to adhesives and inks
- Guides and sliding surfaces for conveyors and sheets
- Structural components subjected to vibration and impact
