Simply switching to a polymer bearing from a stainless-steel bearing has saved a lead acid battery recycler, Fry’s Metals thousands in maintenance costs, and far more in preventing lost production time Recycling lead batteries in high volume is a tough, corrosive working environment to work in. As such, one of South Africa’s leading lead recycling […]
The new material iglidur A181 makes the igubal food contact joint system three-times more wear resistant and has several food safety features. To make machines and systems for the food industry even safer, igus has launched the high-performance plastic iglidur A181, a new standard for a spherical ball material for the igubal food contact (FC) […]

This video highlights all the many benefits & possibilities within vehicles for both energy chains, plain bearings and linear products. To view the video, […]
Lubrication-free drylin linear guides ensure smooth operation of the K900 cleaning robot from KEMARO AG The K900 industrial robot cleans floors wherever it needs to, autonomously and without programming, even in places where it is potentially dangerous or even impossible for people to clean. Lubrication-free linear guides, shafts, plain and fixed flange bearings from igus all […]
igubal stainless steel rod ends with iglidur A160 enable lubrication-free dry running with no risk of contamination Constant relubrication of metal bearing points in the food industry costs time, money and increases the risk of contamination. Maintenance-free igubal spherical plain bearings from igus are an economical and safe alternative. Now igus has introduced a new […]
Have you ever considered the movement of a turnstile or an automated gate? Nowadays the advancement in the technologies used at these gates, such as facial recognition and body scanners, it is more than just an open and shut movement. In this week’s video of the week, adjustable facial recognition screens are shown using various […]
New igubal bearings are a maintenance-free, economical alternative to classic cast housing bearings. Nature can provide engineering with great inspiration: The shape of the new igubal pillow block bearings is based on the design of a tree. Flattened radii ensure maximum strength against mechanical stresses, like a tree’s base. Thanks to this bionic shape, these […]
Grease is a thing of the past! It’s the dirty and costly way of lubricating your bearings and moving parts. In the future it will be outed as the combustion engine of the mechanical work and users will be searching for that new and efficient way of keeping production lines and other equipment running. You […]
Two new lubrication-free tribo polymers increase the service life of bearings in single-axis solar trackers Solarmid and iglidur P UV are the names of the two new materials that igus has developed specifically for housing bearings in single-axis solar trackers, the panels that track sunlight in solar farms. The new polymers last much longer than […]
In this week’s video of the week, it is obvious of the main benefit of changing your metal bearings for igus® polymer ones. The various igubal® parts shown start covered in grease but by switching to a lubrication free igus® bearing, this is eradicated.
