How the
Sanibearing Works:
- Three access slots secure the bearing
on the end of the mixer shaft and through the spider (legs).
- Easy twist seats bearing into spider, reversal of this action allows bearing to slip free while shaft remains fixed
- Meets 3A sanitary specifications
- CIP solution
effectively washes inner bearing surface
- Ends of spider are radiused to provide minimal contact to
steady bearing.
Helping the Food Industry Meet Higher Sanitary Standards
Canby, Oregon - JVNW receives patent for it’s sanitary steady bearing, the SaniBearing.
The SaniBearing is a recent addition to a unique line of engineering accomplishments
developed in response to a demand for improved CIP (clean-in-place) performance in industrial mixing systems.
Designed to be easily disassembled and removed without tools. It dramatically extends the life of the mixer and improves the performance
of the mixer’s operating shaft speed. David Carter Jones, CEO of JVNW, applauds the superior functionality in its simple
design as, “Almost too simple. We were amazed no one had come up with this. It saves time and is self-cleaning, even Biodiesel processors
love it.” Kyle Sawyer, Chief of Operations at JVNW adds, “This SaniBearing is amazing. Maintenance crews no longer have
to break their backs pulling the agitator drive and shaft to change the guide.”
In 2005, JVNW was awarded with our first U.S. Patent for the Sanifoil Impeller. The ultra sanitary clean-in-place design has become standard in JVNW vessels.
