Bearings and energy supply systems for car interiors

Move seat elements, rotary switches, doors and windows safely and without maintenance

When designing the vehicle interior, safety and comfort play a major role. Bearing points and cable guides in the interior components should therefore be as quiet and smooth-running as possible.

Some key advantages of our bearings and energy chains are:

  • Cost-effective
  • Lightweight
  • Quiet running with max. 60dB(A) for the assembly
  • Cost advantage and up to 80% lower weight compared to metallic solutions
  • Easy to install

interior components for automotive manufacturing

Seat adjustment

In the backrest, seat, headrest or armrest: the modern vehicle seat offers numerous adjustment options. And we have the right bearings and energy supply systems. Linear, pivoting or rotating: we have the right product for every type of movement.

Our top selling products used in seat adjustments are E2 micro energy chains, E04 chains, plain bearings, linear systems, lead screws, and clip bearings.

These range from the headrest adjustment, the arm movement, the backrest adjustment, all of these need parts to help with the movement. Find out more about parts used in seat adjustments here.

exterior components for automotive manufacturing

Centre console

Quiet and clean sliding without maintenance: drylin N low-profile guide system and dryspin lead screw technology

Another key area within the centre console is the Rotary switch
Smooth operation, lightweight, no additional lubrication and maintenance: xiros ball bearings, e.g. the cost-effective all-rounder xirodur B180

engine components for automotive manufacturing

Pedal System

Pedals are one of the most important parts of the vehicle. As well as a safety element, it is a point that is in direct contact with the driver and requires an immediate reaction the moment the pedal is touched.

Insensitive to edge loads and suitable for high static loads: iglidur J plain bearing, also available as a low-rattle version with pre-loaded bushings.

Sunroof and sliding doors

drylin linear guides as an alternative to recirculating ball bearing guides for sunroof mechanisms: insensitive to dirt, heat and corrosion; E2 micro e-chains, series 03 as a hardware supplement for heating functions or self-darkening panes

For sliding doors, Cable protection in the tightest of installation spaces thanks to defined radii and kinematics, e.g. for keyless entry systems and safety features: e-chain E2C.15, closed

Selector lever

Resistant to sustained vibrations and friction, vibration-dampening: iglidur J flange plain bearings and thrust washers, for rotation igubal spherical bearing KGLM with compensation for edge loads

Being maintenance and lubrication-free, the igus products are used extensively in levers as they are clean and lightweight.
