Why Do Filling Machines Use 304 Stainless Steel?

Filling machine is a kind of mechanical equipment used in food, beverage, cosmetics, and other industries. It has the advantages of high filling accuracy, high production efficiency, and simple operation. In the manufacturing process of filling machines, stainless steel materials are often used. Among stainless steel materials, 304 stainless steel is widely used in the production of filling machines. So, why does the filling machine use 304 stainless steel?

Characteristics of 304 stainless steel

304 stainless steel is a material with excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, and good plasticity. It is composed of 18% chromium and 8% nickel and also contains small amounts of carbon, manganese, and other elements. Because of its good corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, and wear resistance, it is widely used in the production of filling machines.

Advantages of 304 stainless steel

Strong corrosion resistance: 304 stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance, can resist the erosion of most acidic and alkaline media, is not easy to rust, and can extend the service life of the filling machine.

Good plasticity: 304 stainless steel has good plasticity and can be easily processed by forming, welding, and cutting, and is suitable for the production of filling machines of various shapes.

Good high-temperature resistance: 304 stainless steel has excellent high-temperature resistance and can withstand use in high-temperature environments without deformation or thermal cracking, ensuring the long-term stability of the filling machine.

Easy to clean: The surface of 304 stainless steel is smooth, not easy to stain, easy to clean, meets hygienic requirements, and can ensure the hygienic safety of filling machine products.

Conclusion

In summary, the filling machine using 304 stainless steel has the advantages of strong corrosion resistance, good plasticity, good high-temperature resistance, and easy cleaning, which can ensure the normal operation of the filling machine and the hygiene and safety of the product. Therefore, choosing 304 stainless steel is a wise choice when making a filling machine.
