Specification guidance
Cleanability affects daily production.
Hygienic powder filling is not only about stainless steel. Contact-part access, hopper design, screw removal, dust traps and changeover procedures all affect how practical the machine is to run.
The level of hygiene required depends on the product, risk profile, cleaning method and production environment. Those requirements should be stated before equipment is specified.
