Success with replacing non-igus® with igus®

Problem solving is what we do. We thrive on the challenge of trying to change original failing parts with igus® materials. Here, we see some success stories of how we did just that.

ATEX standard: How can dust cause an explosion?

Who would have thought that dust could cause an explosion!! There are European Standards that enforce compliance in certain environments and these standards keep people safe. What products does igus® have that fall under these standards?

Bottle It Up!

Bottling industries rely on products being maintenance free, easy to assemble and disassemble and with predictability. igus® products offer all of this so it is easy to see why original products are being replaced with igus® materials.

Tribo-Coating: Exploring avenues where 0.5mm is too big…

When you have an issue with wear and are limited to space, why don’t you coat it. Tribo-coating allows metal on metal contact without the wear. It acts as a protective barrier but only adds a minimal thickness to the donor part.

Putting our 3D printed parts to the test

At igus®, we recognise the importance of wear and friction in industry. It comes as no surprise, then, that our core beliefs are based on wear-resistant polymers that naturally minimise wear and increase the service life of parts. Thanks to their tribological properties, our iglidur® parts are ideal for myriad applications and industries.

When being blue is a positive thing.

Being blue is a sign of safety in the food industry. igus® have a range of products that are designed to be suitable and enforce safety in such environments.
