Timken posted $4.6 billion in sales in 2024 and employs approximately 19,000 people globally, operating from 45 countries.
Food and Beverage OEMs and processors turn to Timken because we offer machine components that meet and exceed stringent food safety standards and regulations. This includes a wide selection of food-safe bearings designed to cope with the conditions that cause many bearings to fail prematurely. Timken food-safe bearings typically cost less to own than original bearings due to longer service life and less maintenance.
A full portfolio of stainless steel, solid lubricated, polymer and metal-detectable bearings is available, as well as housed units for meeting various requirements.
We make products specifically for:
Thermal Processing
High and low temperatures are among the demanding environments that Timken engineered bearings are designed to withstand. Our bearings, belts and chains are designed to provide reliable, uninterrupted services in ovens, fryers, boilers, steamers, coolers, freezers and chillers.
Mechanical Processing
Timken® Engineered bearings and mechanical power transmission products run longer under harsh, operating conditions. That’s why they are especially well-suited to demanding requirements of extruders, mixers, peelers, breeders, deboners, slicers and other machines in food processing.
Handling and Packaging
In high throughput applications, unplanned downtime is not an option. Timken engineered bearings, belts and chains are reliable performers in food conveyors; modular belt conveyors; modular belt converts; wire belt conveyors; sanitary wash tanks; single pivot dumpers; sizing, sorting & weighing equipment and packaging machinery.
