Linear guides for food industry diversion systems

In food industry diversion and sorting systems, the reliability of linear guides is essential to ensure 24/7 continuous operation, motion accuracy and reduced downtime. Modern food processing and packaging lines require pusher mechanisms capable of operating continuously while meeting strict hygiene standards and minimizing maintenance requirements.

Gruppo Mondial, official distributor in Italy of HepcoMotion solutions, supports machine builders in selecting linear motion systems designed for high-duty-cycle applications.

Hepco GV3 linear guides, featuring a V-guide architecture with rolling bearings, provide high stiffness, smooth movement and excellent wear resistance in high-speed sorting systems. Their self-supporting configuration, with rails supported only at the ends, allows wide conveyor spans without compromising structural rigidity.

This approach is particularly effective in bakery and biscuit sorting lines, where compact layouts, easy cleaning and operational continuity are key design requirements.

For highly sensitive food environments, the Hepco SL2 stainless steel system is also available, compatible with food-grade lubricants and suitable for hygienic applications.

From the design phase through to final integration, Mondial Group contributes to the development of highly reliable sorting systems engineered for continuous operation in food processing environments.
