Tools for processing dry food
Challenge & Goal
Embossing stamps in food production must be abrasion-resistant and transfer structures and logos reproducibly.
Typical problems are
- Adhesions that lead to unclean contours and product loss
- High cleaning effort and downtimes due to frequent polishing and reprocessing
- Tool wear, which significantly reduces the precision and service life of the stamping dies
Consistent surface quality and hygienic cleanliness are absolutely essential, especially in the production of dry food.
Our solution
Our DLC coatings (2.0) are extremely smooth, wear-resistant and chemically resistant. They reliably prevent adhesion and protect smooth structured surfaces. As a result, the embossing quality remains consistently high, while cleaning cycles and tool changes are significantly reduced.
Advantages for the customer
- Consistent product quality: logos and structures remain permanently and precisely recognizable
- Less buildup: Clean surfaces reduce residues and contamination
- Hygiene & safety: Easy to clean, resistant to aggressive cleaning agents
- Cost reduction: Longer die life significantly reduces tool and process costs
- More efficiency: less set-up work increases productivity
