industrial maintenance

When you look at the heart of any advanced manufacturing line, whether it’s a paper mill, a food processing plant, or a high-speed CNC machine, you’ll find a component working tirelessly behind the scenes: the rotary joint. Industrial engineers, production and maintenance managers know the pain of fluid leaks, frequent maintenance, and costly downtime. But what if the solution was a single innovation that transformed how industries harness water, steam, and other fluids in motion? What is a rotary joint and why is it important in industrial machinery? A rotary joint—also known as a rotary union or swivel joint—is a mechanical device that allows the transfer of steam, water, oil, coolant, air, or other media from a stationary source to a rotating part, such as a drying cylinder, drum, or spindle. Industrial rotary joints are essential in paper manufacturing, CNC machining, food processing, and chemical production. Common rotary joint a

A Johnson-Fluiten rotary joint is characterized by reliability and durability, but it remains a component with moving parts. Even during routine maintenance, the company knows how to differentiate itself by providing solutions that minimize the impact of intervention for the customer. Marco Golla, sales manager at Johnson-Fluiten, tells us about it.   A Rotary joint is not going to last forever: no matter how robust and reliable the component is, it is a normal process for some of its parts to wear out with use. What can be expected, however, is that the rotary joint will last for a long time and that wear parts can be replaced easily, quickly and without disruption to production operations. Johnson-Fluiten, a leading designer and manufacturer of rotary joints for industry offers a combination of replacement kits and support services such that c
