smart plastics

igus® smart plastics supplies products with different isense sensors, the icom evaluation module and the icom concept. plus components that measure operating states, announce necessary maintenance measures and also interrupt operation before any greater damage to equipment can occur.

Cost-effective, space-saving econ toothed belt axis: drylin® ZLN-40

From prototype to mass production. The ZLN combines the flat and lightweight design of the drylin® N linear guide with the dynamics of a toothed belt axis.

Addition: Build it yourself in 30 minutes – drylin® DLE-DR delta robot

Based on a modular system, users can choose between a compact self-assembly modular kit or pre-assembled in a transport frame. Both options are very cost-effective, so that the investment in automation pays off very quickly.

e-loop – the e-chain® for vertical heavy-duty applications

The e-loop combines the advantages of a plastic e-chain® with those of a high-strength Dyneema rope. Ideal for three-dimensional movements.

Even lighter, lower profile: PRT-04 slewing ring bearings

The new PRT-04 slewing ring bearing is 60% lighter than its predecessor. The installation height was also reduced by half, offering even more design freedom.

Move sharp-edged and heavy loads with lubrication-free ball transfer units

Polymer ball transfer units with stainless steel balls are ideal for transporting sharp-edged goods, e.g. in transport tables. They are more cost-effective and also lighter than pure stainless steel rollers.

igus® readycable® for the 7th robot axis. Now harnessed for ABB as well.

Ready-to-connect cables for robots, e.g. FANUC, KUKA and ABB, with chainflex® PUR quality (bend radius up to 10xd).

Universal cable guidance for small robots & cobots

Cable guidance at collaborative robots - new modular concepts for fast attachment of energy supply without tools.

e-spool® flex - continuous panel feed

Design study: the e-spool® flex is the igus version of a cable drum. It combines an intelligent housing design with a twisterband for rotary motion on the inside. This results in the flexibility of being able to use any cable with a diameter of up to 10mm.
