At the beginning of the year, Axioma servisas became the official representative of the Canadian manufacturer “Thordon Bearings” in Lithuania. “Thordon Bearings” specializes in the design and manufacture of unique polymer bearings and shaft components that can operate without any lubrication (at low speeds) or can be lubricated only with potable water.
The products are widely used in the marine industry, hydropower, food and beverage industry, heavy machinery and other applications involving rotating or sliding mechanisms.
Solutions for the food and beverage industry
For the food and beverage industry, “Thordon Bearings” offers innovative bearings and bushings made from patented “ThorPlas-Blue” and “ThorPlas-White” polymer materials.
These are advanced components that do not require lubrication with grease or oil and have been successfully used in vertical pumps, screw conveyors, cutting and crushing equipment, mixers, filling and packaging lines and other critical production lines.
“Thordon Bearings” products are used for:
- Meat processing plants
- In the dairy industry
- Bread and other bakery products
- Beverage industry, etc.
Why choose “Thordon Bearings”?
Safety without compromise
“ThorPlas-White” material is designed specifically for the needs of the food and beverage industry. It complies with NSF/ANSI 51, NSF/ANSI 61, WRAS standards, ensuring a clean and safe production environment and can be used in direct contact with food products. In addition, “Thordon Bearings” components do not pose a risk of product contamination, as they do not contain heavy metals, lubricants or other potentially harmful substances.
No lubrication – fewer risks, lower costs
Due to their specific lubrication properties, “Thordon Bearings” bearings and bushes can operate without grease or oil. This reduces the risk of product contamination, which is particularly important in the highly hygienically regulated food industry. Importantly, it also reduces operating costs by eliminating the need for systematic lubrication or oiling.
Resistance to moisture, chemical cleaning agents and temperature fluctuations
“Thordon Bearings” bearings offer excellent resistance to aggressive environments – whether it’s moisture, chemicals or temperature changes. This means less wear, fewer replacements and longer equipment life.
Sustainability and efficiency in one
Lubrication-free systems not only mean less pollution but also greater energy efficiency. Less friction makes equipment run more smoothly, saving electricity and reducing the CO₂ footprint.
