Extrusion components in food processing require wear- and corrosion-resistant BÖHLER steels with high strength and hygiene performance. Key quality features include ultra-clean materials, controlled heat treatment, full traceability, and optimized surfaces for reliable processing.

Extrusion operations in food and beverage processing place high demands on materials due to continuous mechanical loading, elevated temperatures, pressure, and exposure to aggressive cleaning media. Components such as screws, barrels, and dies must ensure consistent product quality while maintaining strict hygiene standards. Material requirements focus on high wear and abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and dimensional stability under thermal and mechanical stress. Additionally, resistance to adhesive wear and surface degradation is critical to prevent contamination and ensure consistent processing performance.

BÖHLER high-performance steels and alloys are specifically developed to meet these challenges. Advanced tool steels and corrosion-resistant stainless steels offer an optimized balance of hardness, toughness, and resistance to wear and chemical attack. Produced using advanced melting technologies, BÖHLER materials ensure high purity and homogeneous microstructures, supporting long service life and stable processing conditions. Key quality features include precise chemical composition control, certified traceability, and validated heat treatment processes to achieve tailored hardness and surface properties. Surface finish and integrity are strictly controlled to meet hygiene requirements. Comprehensive testing ensures compliance with food safety standards. BÖHLER materials enable efficient, reliable, and hygienic extrusion processes with extended tool lifetime.
