Linear Guidance Cutter

A cutting machine’s in-feed uses pillow blocks from the DryLin® linear range on its guidance mechanism used to center blocks of cheese weighing up to 187 pounds. The arms of this centralizing unit are mounted on the pillow blocks and then guided smoothly up from beneath a conveyor. The position of the guides means they are subjected to severe washdowns, and the unit's components are water and chemical resistant, will not corrode and have virtually no cavities in which food can lodge. They are also lubrication- and maintenance-free and so are ideal for use in this application.
