Compact rotation: igus adds to its 16mm slewing ring range08-04-2021
The space-saving PRT-04 slewing ring bearings are now available in other sizes with inner and outer tooth drive and a locking function They are compact and lightweight and show how things are done. They have been developed specifically for movement in tight spaces and give igus an entire PRT-04 modular system. The lubrication-free slewing ring bearing system comes in eight sizes. They feature outer tooth drive and angle stop (optional), and now also inner drive teeth and a locking function. This allows the design engineer to find the product needed for applications with very little installation space. |

e-spool flex for continuous panel feed in industrial robots31-03-2021
ARAGON Industrieelektronik GmbH, a robotics service provider, uses a new slip ring-free igus cable unwinder A control panel forms the robot's control centre. If it is to be used flexibly, its cable must be not only several metres long, but also movable and safely stowed. To this end, igus has developed the e-spool flex. The new igus cable reel has no slip ring, so it can even supply bus signals with no interruptions. The cable can also be easily retrofitted into the system. These advantages won ARAGON over. It offers a complete cable set, consisting of e-spool flex with a standard cable and a pre-assembled panel mount, as a service for its industrial robots. |

Simply off the roll: new chainflex cable box saves 84 per cent shipping costs25-03-2021
With the chainflex CASE, users can quickly and cost-effectively set up a space-saving storage system for reel goods igus has developed a new logistics solution for its special energy chain cables. With the chainflex CASE, the user directly saves several times over, because instead of delivery by a courier, the cable now comes by parcel service in a secure stackable box. This significantly reduces both shipping and storage costs. The cable can be unreeled straight from the box and cut to the desired length. A QR code on the chainflex CASE ensures that the cable can be re-ordered quickly. |

Lubrication-free adjustment of heavy loads with the new igus polymer lead screw nut18-03-2021
Wear-resistant dryspin lead screw nut for heavy-duty applications cost-effectively replaces ball screws Plastic and heavy loads? This time igus proves that the combination works with a new lead screw nut design. The injection-moulded dryspin JGRM polymer nut offers a cost-effective alternative to ball screw nuts. The new lubrication-free and wear-resistant design can move heavy loads. For higher axial loads, the new lead screw nut is also available with a stainless steel plate as a "Heavy Duty version". |

Suitable for the desert! igubal pillow block bearings without lubrication align solar panels11-03-2021
Extended igus solar pillow block bearing series for square profiles, impresses in laboratory tests with a service life of over 72 years To enable solar panels to generate energy efficiently, solar park operators rely on movable modules that automatically align themselves to the position of the sun and thus ensure a high energy yield. igus has developed the igubal ESQM pillow block bearing specifically for mounting the modules on square profiles and has now expanded it with two additional dimensions. Plant operators worldwide receive a lubrication-free solution, resistant to dust and dirt, whose durability has been tested in the laboratory and is guaranteed for 25 years. |

Cables weighing tons guided by quickly mounted igus energy chain04-03-2021
Harnessed and tested e-loop energy supply system increases safety and reduces procurement and installation time It guides cables safely at a defined bend radius and even withstands shocks and impacts: the e-loop. The energy chain system is specifically designed for hanging applications, such as in deep drilling rigs and is already replacing service loops worldwide. In order to offer users a complete ready-to-connect system from a single source that operates safely even in extreme application scenarios, such as in explosion zones, igus now offers its energy chains with special connectors and cables as tested readychains. |

igus roller e-chain for targeted irrigation with savings potential24-02-2021
New precision irrigation carriage reduces water and fertiliser consumption by 75% - e-chain in a trough guides hoses with additional energy saving The aim of the precision irrigation carriage from Rathmakers Gartenbautechnik is to use water resources sensibly whilst protecting the groundwater at the same time. With the new automatic irrigation system, the water reaches exactly where it should: directly to the plants. For the safe and compact guidance of hoses and cables, the developers rely on an igus energy chain system consisting of roller chain and guide trough. |

Modular, flat and quickly assembled: e-skin flat single pods for cleanrooms18-02-2021
igus extends ISO Class 1 energy chain series with single chamber solution and e-skin flat with support chain for more unsupported lengths igus has developed the e-skin flat to guide cables compactly and virtually particle-free in cleanrooms. In order to enable the users to install the energy chain even faster and exchange cables easily, igus now also offers the e-skin flat as "single pods". This allows the user to define the number of chambers, combine them modularly and insert cables in seconds. A new support chain additionally strengthens the e-skin flat and provides a higher unsupported length. |

Exoskeleton customised in seconds with lubrication-free igus plain bearings21-01-2021
drylin linear systems and iglidur plain bearings provide lubrication-free adjustment of an exoskeleton for stroke patients Many stroke patients worldwide suffer from hemiplegia (partial paralysis). Exoskeletons such as Harmony from Harmonic Bionics can help rebuild the nerve tracts in arms and shoulders. In order to quickly adapt the robot-supported system to different body sizes in physiotherapy, the developers rely on the lightweight, lubrication-free and maintenance-free plain bearing technology from igus. |

Ready for direct connection: igus hybrid cable for new motor generation07-01-2021
Harnessed readycable for the e-chain transmits energy and data securely in a compact installation space In order to supply modern motors with energy and data, users need appropriate cables that function dependably even at high accelerations and on long travels. Especially for use in motion, igus has now developed a hybrid cable that is offered as a drive solution for the new Bosch Rexroth motors. It combines energy and data cable in one and is therefore also suitable for compact installation spaces. igus offers the cable as a fully harnessed readycable that is accurate to the centimetre. This saves the user costs. |

Energy and data transmission rolled out and connected in under 60 minutes03-12-2020
Revolutionary autoglide 5 system from igus does not need a guide trough Guiding energy safely on long travels and at a low cost: this was the goal behind the development of the autoglide 5 from igus. The new energy chain system is specifically designed for horizontal use in intralogistics and on crane systems. The special feature: the energy supply is quickly installed, as it does not require a guide trough. Instead, it lies on a steel wire rope held in place by the e-chain contour. |

Safety at high speed with the igus e-chain system in the linear motor robot26-11-2020
Side-mounted energy chain from igus, ensures reliable energy supply in high-speed lightweight linear robots Twice as fast and half as heavy: this is what makes the linear motor robot from FIBRO LÄPPLE TECHNOLOGY (FLT) different from other solutions. In order for the linear robot to be able to get production up and running quickly and reliably, a compact, durable and quiet energy supply was required. A side-mounted igus energy chain system with pre-harnessed chainflex cables proved to be the optimal solution. |
