Why do you need FDA approval?
Stretching across our different product departments, igus® provides FDA-compliant materials for myriad applications, from packaging raw food in factories, to dispensing liquids using an FDA-compliant robot and using FDA-approved materials to increase efficiency and cleanliness in a food and drink production line. Our materials are all tested to a high degree to ensure safe and healthy properties, while staying long-lasting and resistant to necessary wash down procedures found in the food and beverage industry.
Flexible linear robots: where can I get one?
Multi-axis gantries are machinery systems that can travel across predefined surfaces or volumes. At igus®, we have gantry applications lifting hundreds of kilos for industrial tasks and others carrying out millimetres of travel for high precision tasks.
Motor controller? We’ve got you sorted!
At igus® we love to shout about our software as much as our hardware: as the dryve D1® is both, it therefore creates no exception. The top features that we and our customers identify are: easy-to-use, accessible, versatile, low-cost, valuable and of course igus®-made.
What is special about an igus® D3 motor control?
The drylin® D3 dryve is a motor controller designed to control brushed DC motors via simple automation using the in-built control system without needing software or a PC.
Motor controller: All about the drylin® dryve D1
The drylin® dryve D1 is the advanced motor controller created by igus® to be used with EC/BLDC, stepper and DC motors. It was designed to solve issues such as long commissioning times and communication troubles within drive systems. With its quick and easy setup via any web browser and its popular CANopen and Modbus TCP protocols, it is an obvious choice for many applications – whether industrial or local.
