Meat Grinding Tube

A meat grinding customer was experiencing cracking within their cylinders. Ultimately the cause of the cracking was traced to the use of forgings, which feature a unidirectional grain structure that tended to propagate cracking under high stress. The customer adopted centrifugals because the multi-directional grain structure of the centrifugal prevented cracking, and solved the performance problem.
