When I talk about low-cost automation, it reminds me of all projects I have participated in the past 13 years. For recent years, we have been focusing on providing linear bearing parts and some linear module products for OEMs. Our products are always found to be used to do some incredible things, but we have […]
Whether in a welded construction of a road/rail vehicle, or in the interior of a double-decker train; you have to work with tolerances everywhere and be able to compensate for them. Especially when linear, pivoting or rotary movements should continue to function without problems. There are often linear guides used in railway construction vehicles or […]
New cost-effective drylin telescopic rail made by injection moulding ensures easy extension The world’s first polymer telescopic rail from igus demonstrates what 100 per cent plastic can do. It is light, quick to assemble and, thanks to injection moulding, cost-effective. With it, amongst other things, drawers, seats and headrests can be easily pulled out and […]
Lubrication-free and maintenance-free tribo polymer bearings from igus ensure high flexibility and long life in a new piece of furniture Working and living in confined spaces is often not so easy. Therefore, the interior design student Valeria Vysozki developed a very practical solution with her piece of furniture “Frida”. Relax on the softly upholstered sofa; […]
Custom design robolink robot arm ensures fast automation and a new shopping experience From industrial use, robots are increasingly finding their way into the retail trade. There they ensure rapid automation of processes and are also a real eye-catcher. Users place high demands on design and reliability at a cost-effective price. For this reason, igus […]
