Food & Beverage Applications
JVL motors meet the strict hygiene demands of food and beverage production with IP67 protection, stainless steel options, and wash-down rated designs.
Industry Challenges
Daily Wash-Down
Production areas are cleaned with high-pressure water and chemicals. Motors must survive repeated wash-down cycles.
Hygienic Design
FDA and EHEDG guidelines require smooth surfaces, no crevices, and food-grade materials in the production zone.
Wide Temperature Range
From freezer environments to oven-exit conveyors, motors face extreme temperature swings throughout the plant.
Continuous Production
24/7 production schedules leave no room for unplanned downtime or complex maintenance procedures.
Recommended Motors
Stepper Motors

MIS234
ServoStep MIS - NEMA 23 Integrated Stepper Motor with highest torque in series

MIS341
ServoStep MIS - NEMA 34 Integrated Stepper Motor with higher torque

MIS342

Why JVL for Food & Beverage?
IP67 Protection
Fully sealed motors withstand direct water jets and chemical cleaning agents without moisture ingress.
Stainless Steel Options
Food-grade stainless steel housings resist corrosion from acids, salts, and cleaning chemicals.
No Cabinet Required
Decentralized drive architecture eliminates control cabinets from hygiene zones, simplifying plant layout.
High Torque at Low Speed
Conveyor and mixer drives deliver consistent torque across the full speed range without external gearboxes.
Winning Applications
Crumble dosing machine for yoghurt. 14 axes per filler. MIS232 Profinet used to motorize the dosing screws.
FRCompact motor: 14 motors side by side. Flexibility using Profinet.
MIS232Customer is specialized in design and manufacturing of flexible packaging machines for liquid, pasty, and viscous products in pillow pouch. The motors are used in a bag-filling turret: the bags are opened and closed using motorized grippers. 5 grippers per turret (2 motors/gripper). Motor used: MIS234 with I/O Link and Ethernet/IP variants.
FRShared power supply. Easy control. Absolute Multi-Turn Encoder. Greater reliability due to the coated PCB option.
MIS234Customer is a French leader in industrial bakery and pastry-making. The application replaces 25 motors with MIS231 motors controlled by Ethernet/IP with IP65 protection. The motors push a bar of chocolate into the Pain au Chocolat buns.
FRThe MIS motors are more modern and more compact than the old-generation motors. Quick and easy commissioning.
MIS231Machine for sheeting and shaping dough.
CHIntegrated motor with Profinet for flexible dough processing control.
MIS23x/34xBottle filling machine, movement of filling nozzles for up and down and conveyor systems. Customer uses 15 pcs MAC1500 for each machine.
TRMajor drive ecosystem now recognizes JVL motors. Won because of the fully integrated motor design that saves space and simplifies installation.
MAC1500Customer manufactures machines that fry chicken and also operates a franchise. They use a multi-joint robot for frying and a cartesian robot for transport. JVL's MIS232 motor was applied to the cartesian robot, controlled by the robot controller.
KRSuccessfully applied where an additional motor was needed in an already configured robot system, meeting spatial constraints and simplifying control.
