Company introductionhttp://www.igus.com.tw

igus is a Germany-based multinational company with 35 subsidiaries worldwide and 4,000 employees abroad. Our products - igus energy chain systems, chainflex cables, iglidur plain bearings, drylin linear guide, dryspin lead screw and nuts, xiros ball bearings, igubal spherical bearing, iglidur bar stock, iglidur PRT slewing ring bearing, drylin E electric motors and motor control system, low cost automation, 3D printing, smart plastics, readychain ready-to-install harnessed energy chains, readycable ready-to-connect systems, drygear gearbox are technical leaders and with great success to different kind of industrial sectors. motion plastics® products are made of tribo-optimised polymers which bring about improvements from environmental points of view as well. The life cycle assessment of the plastics produced is good. In the manufacturing process, 50 % less mineral oil is used than for similar products made of steel and 70 % less than those made of aluminium. Given the 54.4 billion tons of lubricant that finds its way into the environment every year, lubrication-free polymers from igus make a further contribution to protection of the environment. More than five decades of experience and research with motion plastics in the industry's largest laboratory (3,800m²) have led to highly durable materials that fulfil our promise: " Tech up, Cost down. It's our job." Every igus product is tested thoroughly before it is put on sale, over 15,000 tests are performed each year so that we can offer many product benefits such as cost effective, lubrication free, maintenance free, long service life, lightweight, resistant to dirt, chemical and corrosion, insensitive to heat and cold, etc. Moreover, above 40 free online tools can help customers quickly and easily obtain reliable data to ensure product safety and economic benefits.

Business item(s)

iglidur® plain bearing/sleeve bearing/flange bearing/linear

Lowering costs and raising service life with no lubrication and a reduction in maintenance work, everything delivered immediately from stock - that is the core idea and the objective of all iglidur® polymer plain bearings. The igus® plain bearings range includes sleeve bearings, flange bearings, thrust washers, piston rings, clip-on plain bearings and many other designs. iglidur® plain bearings always offer a solution – either from the catalogue range or as custom-made plain bearing special solution. No minimum quantity! iglidur® bearings are suitable for all moving applications - from automotive mass production and special mechanical engineering, from underwater applications to the food or tobacco industry, for resistance to extreme temperatures and chemicals and for simple sheet-metal bushings.

igubal® spherical bearings Pillow block bearing Fixed flange bearing

igubal® spherical bearings and pillow block bearings are self-aligning bearing elements completely made from plastics. The split and self-aligning pillow block bearings are easy to assemble, adjust to all angular variances, and in many cases were already able to replace special housings. The igubal® user utilizes all advantages of the employed high performance plastics. They have excellent vibration dampening properties, and are technically applicable in dry operation. They are insensitive to dirt, can operate in liquids and even in chemicals and are completely resistant to corrosion. The weight of igubal® parts is up to 80 % lower than for comparable competitive parts made from steel.

igubal® KARM 業界首創 - 自潤無油魚眼軸承(桿端軸承)

igubal® metallic rod end bearing with male thread igubal® rod ends are corrosion-resistant and can be used without problems in harsh environments. In moist or wet environments, they are resistant to weak acids and alkalines. Rod ends are also resistant to dirt and dust. Steel housing for very high loads. Suitable for temperatures from -40°C to +90°C in long-term use, inner rings mounted with extremely little clearance.

iglidur® PRT slewing ring bearing

iglidur® PRT slewing ring bearings are ready-to-install slewing rings for lubrication-free dry running. The design is not based on metal rollers or balls but on maintenance-free sliding elements made of the proven tribologically optimised iglidur materials in combination with rings made of lightweight anodised aluminium or stainless steel. iglidur materials can be employed universally and enable use in applications involving high temperatures, moisture or contact with chemicals as well as in the food industry.

xiros® polymer ball bearings

xiros polymer ball bearings to DIN 625 do not need any external lubrication, are corrosion-resistant (if glass or plastic balls are used) and, during operation, are extremely quiet. This makes them a cost-effective alternative to metal ball bearings. Made from a mixture of tribo-polymers, the iglidur material plastic components are light, resistant to chemicals and non-magnetic. This ensures that they can be used safely in the areas of medicine, packaging, food processing, drive technology and other industries. The polymer ball bearings not only cost up to 40% less but are also 60% lighter than their equivalent made of metal. They also help to ensure a long, low-maintenance machine life. The reason is that xiros® ball bearings enable dry, low-friction operation without a single drop of lubricating oil.
