Testing device ready for series production thanks to igus
With this device it is possible to test welds for their quality. In igus drive technology, a drylin SHT linear unit is used here as standard, which enables the adjustment of a bending die. As a result, bending specimens with a maximum force of up to 5,000N are conceivable. "Munsch Kunststoff-Schweißtechnik GmbH" relies on a complete solution with electric drive in the form of a gear motor.

Industrial vehicles with special tasks
Jungheinrich AG, a manufacturer of industrial vehicles, developed a low-platform truck for a large-scale Scandinavian dairy, which collects trolleys that can be inserted into each other. The aim is to bring the trolleys to a washing facility. Instead of two usual forks for receiving pallets, just one fork is used here. It is controlled by a specially developed multifunction controller.

Linear system with carriage clamping
All long linear carriages can be ordered with an integrated carriage clamping system.The system protects against unintentional adjustment and secures the linear carriage in place when non-self-locking dryspin® high helix threads are used.
- For SHT installation sizes 12, 20 and 30
- Also for reverse or multi-carriage configuration
- Securing the position especially in vertical installation position
