In this week’s video of the week, the packaging machine showcases a number of igus® products being used. From curved rail to drylin® and iglidur® bearings, all products are ideally suited for this application as no maintenance is required. The igus® products are also lubrication free so allows a clean, smooth motion. The machine also […]
Pick and place and simple assembly operations in medical labs and electronics production lines can now be engineered at low cost, with the latest robot from igus, the drylin SCARA. One common barrier to automating a manufacturing process, certainly in the UK, has been cost. Motion plastic and cable technology pioneers igus devised the Low […]
The drylin Gantry Configurator lowers the barriers to start your automation journey. The new Gantry Configurator from igus lets you configure and program a gantry robot online in five minutes, receive instant results, carry out functional tests in an augmented reality view and download CAD data with technical drawings. And being connected to the RBTX […]
drylin ZLW belt axis manufactured with FDA-compliant materials can be cleaned quickly and is maintenance-free thanks to tribopolymer technology Cleaning complex machines and systems in food production leads to longer and therefore expensive downtime. To reduce this workload, igus is launching a ready-to-connect belt axis, designed to meet hygienic standards for the food industry. It […]
The new generation of the strain wave gear is low cost, self-lubricating and polymer! With high efficiency, no lubrication and its lightweight design, the dry running strain wave gear is a welcomed addition to the drygear® family. In this week’s video of the week, you can see how easy it to assemble and how the […]
Students use drylin linear units to develop a 3D printer for the cost-effective production of structural components in outer space. When booms for solar panels or satellite antennas are transported into space in a rocket, they are exposed to very high loads. To simplify space transportation and speed up the production of these components, a […]
A new water vending machine from a Californian company reduces the transport and consumption of plastic bottles with the help of igus motion plastics. The Drop Station is a new sustainable drinks vending machine that dispenses water into compostable containers at the push of a button. The water does not have to be transported, as […]
New online tool helps users customise the best maintenance-free linear drive system Spindle, rack and pinion, or belt drive? Light or heavy load? Motor or handwheel? The search for the right linear module is time-consuming, which is exactly why igus has introduced the drive technology configurator. After entering all the parameters for the application, this […]
This week’s video shows how igus products are used in vertical farming, an exciting new industry which demands reliability, longevity and no maintenance.
