Case studies

Sealing applications in practice

Industry: Pulp and Paper
Maschine: High-Pressure Feeder
Industry: Pulp and paper
After only 7 months, a graphite packing failed due to excessive extrusion. One sleeve was damaged. Causing costs: 5.000 € / 6.000 $.
The feeder was repacked with a Trapez-Pack®30. It is now 12 month in service and still running.

Industry: Chemical 
Machine: Dryer 
Conditions on a shaft of low speed (6 rpm), high pressure (15 bar) and high temperature (250 °C ), a package lasted 6 months. Repackaging was a costly affair each time and brought downtime costs in addition to product loss. As an improvement, the customer chose our TP55, which has already lasted 24 months.

Dry PTFE packing with 4 rings 12.7 mm on a 30 mm shaft at low pressure (1 bar) and room temperature. The service life was mostly only 2 weeks and ended with uncontrollable leakage. The shaft sleeve used had to be replaced after 12 months. Our TP619 is now in use and has lasted 6 months so far.
