For years the igus® motto has been "plastics for longer life®". By this we mean the production of innovative plastic products which reduce maintenance work, achieve technical improvements, at the same time as reducing costs and increasing service life, everything delivered immediately from stock.
"The purchase price of a plain bearing bushing amounts to only a fraction - here, we already save around 90 percent! Since we replaced the sliding star with a pull-back star, which was in October 2006, we also haven't had any failures or production stops."
"The simplicity of the required modifications makes this solution very cost efficient; they promise an enormous increase in service life of the bearing by the low susceptibility to dirt and humidity, which ultimately leads to an increase in machine availability."
"In conventional solutions, the lubricant on the bearings was washed away or dirt particles were even rinsed into the bearings. This caused problems in the form of downtimes and with it costs. ”
"The plastic plain bearings distinguish themselves by an extremely high wear resistance, low coefficient of friction, high compressive strength as well as chemical resistance. They are also maintenance-free and resistant to dirt."
"Even after high service life, there is no noteworthy increase in clearance and/or abrasion. We have thus increased the availability of expensive printing machines by the simple modification of a low-cost part. ”
