New stepper motor for drylin linear axes provides space-saving and cost-effective dual drive To help customers get started with automation, especially where space is limited, igus has developed a new dual drive stepper motor for its drylin linear technology. It can be used to drive two linear systems directly, which also saves space. Another potential […]
Entry-level drylin Econ series for simple adjustment and positioning tasks reduces costs by around 80% Linear systems used for simple adjustment and positioning tasks, such as adjustable retail displays, now have a greener, low-cost solution. Injection-moulded from regranulated, high-performance plastic, igus’s new polymer slides in the drylin Econ series are both cost effective and sustainable. […]
With an ‘anti-contamination’ design, iglidur high-performance plastic and stainless steel, a new igus linear guide ensures exceptionally high hygienic standards. Food processing machinery requires daily cleaning with chemicals. Even the smallest blind spot can collect moisture and can lead to contamination in the machine. More and more machine builders are therefore designing parts with a […]
By harnessing AI, a new igus app shows how to optimise the design of over 450 applications in just a few seconds Wouldn’t it be nice if time-poor engineers, faced with huge component choices, could easily and quickly improve their designs by seeing the full range of components and their properties instantly? Step forward the […]
A new design study by igus demonstrates how smooth linear plain bearings made of recycled material work when fitted on wooden shafts. Drylin Econ-G bearing J4 proves to be a winner with wood. Is wood and plastic a good combination in engineering? Motion plastics specialist igus has investigated this question in a new design study, […]
A Conmag Engineering solution can transform a terrace into a pool while saving EU30,000 with the help of corrosion-free linear technology from igus Conmag Engineering has designed a “mobile pelvic floor” that transforms a luxury swimming pool into a walk-on terrace using linear technology engineering from igus that works reliably and with little maintenance under […]
Food engineering company One Two Beer GmbH develops automatic beer dispensing system with igus drylin linear technology for foam-free pouring. To prevent long queues at busy bars, One Two Beer GmbH has developed an automatic beer dispensing system. The centre piece is a mobile dispensing head that inserts into the bottom of cups and enables […]
Ensuring engineering is accessible and enjoyable, igus® have recently introduced the term “enjoyneering”. This encapsulates the fun element of learning and experiencing all about engineering in the metaverse, the iguverse. In this week’s “video of the month” we take you deep into the iguverse, allowing a sneak preview of the various rooms we offer, the […]
There are so many applications within the material handling industry that need reliable, effective, and durable products, so it is hardly surprising that there are so many igus® products used in these applications. In this week’s “video of the week”, we see a small selection of igus® parts in action in material handling, from drylin® […]
igusGO tool is new digital tool for engineers which uses a live photo of a machine to show where igus products can provide a potential improvement or cost saving. Simply open the app, point the camera at the application, and the opportunities are immediately displayed. From here it is easy to go directly to the […]
