Durable components for plastic processing machines


When we refer to components made of high-performance plastics that are used in plastics processing machines, we know exactly what we are talking about.
In our production and monitoring systems, which we adjust to our requirements ourselves, we use our e-chains®, maintenance-free plain and linear bearings and cables, sometimes in three-shift operation.

In machines and systems for plastics processing, treatment, recycling, or for devices and components for process automation, igus® components are durable, lubrication-free, resistant to dust, dirt and moisture. Not only that they are also lightweight, reducing overall weight and follow-up costs, such as those for energy.
