A case where recurring seal troubles were resolved by MECO custom shaft seals!
We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of the "MECO Shaft Seal" at Blendex Corporation in Louisville, Kentucky, USA. At the company, sugar was heated and melted, causing damage to the seals of the mixers, which resulted in the need for extensive maintenance and frequent seal replacements. Therefore, we introduced the "MECO Shaft Seal" that we handle. As a result, the manufacturing schedule was able to fit into a normal four-day cycle, eliminating the need to extend working hours, which led to significant cost savings. Additionally, there was an improvement in work safety as there was no longer a need to climb ladders and desperately remove stuck gland packing. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

The MECO seal is a shaft sealing device newly developed by Wuddex Bearing Company in Maine, USA, for low-speed rotating equipment. It has a special structure similar to a dry mechanical seal and is custom-made with a two-part design, making it very easy to retrofit and maintain in existing machinery. While it has high sealing performance, it also has a large tolerance for shaft runout, making it highly effective for retrofitting devices that use gland packing. Various models are available, including those designed to withstand high temperatures, those that enhance sanitary properties, and inexpensive off-the-shelf models suitable for simple devices, allowing us to provide original seals tailored to the customer's applications and specifications.
