Greaves 3D Engineering builds collapsible simulator with 45 igus components such as maintenance-free drylin linear and drive technology UK company Greaves 3D Engineering has developed a professional racing car simulator called “The Ultimate Drivers Rig”, which can be quickly folded up and stored in a road case. This makes transport to racetracks, trade shows and […]
When you think of industrial robots do you think of delicate touch and movement? With the industrial robots featured in this week’s “video of the week” we see how gentle and precise these large industrial robots can be. Using triflex® energy chains, Bosch protect their cables from damage while still maintaining the freedom of movement. […]
With the automotive industry being such a high cost per hour, it is vital that all machinery runs as smoothly as possible and with minimal maintenance. In this weeks, “video of the week”, you can see a variety of applications within the automotive industry that use igus® energy chains. From the robotic triflex® series to […]
Breakdowns can be catastrophic in regard to time and money, especially on production lines where industrial robots are used. To ensure your robot stays in top working order, igus® now offers smart plastics solutions for robots. The condition monitoring system notifies you if an error/breakage occurs allowing you to react quickly in replacing the affected […]
In this week’s video of the week, igus® colleague Constantin runs through a few cable management options for Robots. In the test laboratory in Germany, we have various Robots set up with different igus® systems to see how they cope. This video highlights, a TRX retraction system integrated into triflex® energy chains, swivel arms, module […]
A super-realistic racing simulator has been developed by Greaves 3D Engineering that features 45 igus bearings, linear rails, drives and e-chains. The University of Northampton is using the simulator for deployment on its esports BSc degree course. The driver grips the contoured steering wheel lightly and adjusts the seat position forward, angled back. The pedal […]
The new i.Sense TR. B sensor from igus enables condition monitoring for triflex R energy chains in multi-axis applications Whether welding, painting, soldering or palletizing: industrial robots work dynamically. A flexible 3D energy chain such as the triflex R from igus allows robot cables to be guided safely. To detect potential chain breaks caused by […]
Renowned globally for engineering innovation, igus is set to exceed expectations with a head-turning, maintenance-free product that will really shake up the way we travel. The future of transportation is here! It is true, this claim has been made many times before, but innovation leaders igus believe they have created a real breakthrough in low-cost […]
Every robot is slightly different as is every application, so it is important that we have retraction systems that suit these differences. The triflex® R retraction systems are designed to cope with the complex dynamic movements of industrial robots and are compatible with many robot manufacturers. In this week’s video of the week, you can […]
The degree of freedom required for industrial robots and cobots is immense but thanks to the easily assembled triflex® energy chain range, cables are protected from corkscrewing and wearing. The modular design is simple to fit, allows cables to be inserted easily and without having to break down the entire robot. In this week’s video […]
