Plastic and plain bearing specialist igus enhances its special program
for tribo polymer applications with iglidur semi-finished products in new sizes
and diameters.
Body: Round bars are available in lengths
from 100 to 1000 mm and in diameters from 10 to 100 mm; iglidur plates in
thickness of 2 to 25 mm lie in store at igus. With these additional widths,
designers gain more scope for individual design. Upon request, igus offers the
manufacturing of special parts according to the drawing.
iglidur round bars and
plates from the tribo polymer specialist igus are becoming more and more
diverse and facilitates users adaptations of individual machine requirements.
Mechanically machined bearings made of lubrication-free igus high-performance
plastics are used wherever standard moulded parts are not worth the effort.
Therefore the bearings are also appropriated for special parts as well as for
smallest and medium series. With the scale of materials and sizes it is
possible, to quickly make prototypes and to test the applicability for the
series in a cost-effective way.
Large range of materials and sizes
Because igus tribo
semi-finished products as well as the bearings are made of the tested iglidur
plain bearing materials, all respective bearings can be calculated in advance
online with the help of the specially developed expert system. Meanwhile 10
iglidur materials with specific features are available for a large variety of
branches, such as the food, tobacco or automobile industry. Round materials,
for example in the blue iglidur A350 material were available in diameters of
30, 40, 50 and 60 mm. Now they are also available in the small 20 mm diameter.
They are suitable for medium to high loads and temperatures up to +180 °C. In
addition they conform with FDA requirements and the first choice for the food
industry. Round bars made of the material J 4 are now available in four new
dimensions: in length of 20, 40, 50 and 60 mm.
igus round materials are
available from stock in full bars up to 1 m in increments of 100 mm. Diameters
vary between 10 and 100 mm.
iglidur J plates in seven thickness
The scope also grows for
slide rails and rings: iglidur plates that are suitable for the production of
such parts are currently available in seven material thicknesses from 2 to 25
mm. When used for guide tubes in operation tables, telescope arms for loading
cranes or slide rails, all plates from igus are made of the proven
tribo-optimised plastic iglidur J. The high-performance material eliminates low
friction values in dry runs, it is exceedingly wear-resistant, lubrication and
maintenance-free as well as resistant to chemicals.
Finished forms with igus speedicut
iglidur semi-finished products
can be directly manufactured at igus – customized for your own processing.
Furthermore, igus offers a special service with “speedicut”: With it you can
directly get semi-finished product tools according to your own drawings. After
a very short quotation process, the first prototypes or smallest series are
deliverable within 10 days according to the customer’s requirements.

iglidur J plates are
currently available in seven material thicknesses from 2 to 25 mm. The igus
speedicut service allows users to have the desired part and sizes machined
according to their drawing. The finally machined parts can be delivered from 1
unit. (Source: igus GmbH)
