manus® 2011
For welding joints
Difficult to access
This small vehicle with magnetic wheels firmly adheres to surfaces in order to inspect welds. It can particularly reach otherwise inaccessible places. The environmental conditions include contact with water and ferromagnetic particles. This had to be considered for the bearing of the wheels. Therefore iglidur® plain bearings from igus® are used.
