A couple of weeks ago I was visiting customers in central London, in between meetings I grabbed a sandwich and coffee from a street vendor and sat down on a bench to enjoy my lunch. Two homeless men were on a bench next to me, and I could not help overhearing their loud conversation. They were discussing the excellent quality sandwiches which a well known chain gives out at the end of the day to homeless people. Apparently this company pays a higher hourly rate to London staff than the rest of the UK, but the trade off is that the staff do not get free food. The homeless man was explaining to his friend how he helps a member of staff to save money by circumventing this regulation; he takes two boxes of sandwiches, meets the lady at the end of her shift, and gives one to her.

No such measures are needed to save money when using igus® parts; if you have moving parts on your machine then it is highly likely we can save you money while also increasing the life of your design! Email me with the details of your requirements and, I promise I will give it my urgent attention. This applies to bearings, linear guides, cable chains and flexible cables, the samples are free and you could save a lot of money.

You can also come and see the latest ideas and products from igus® at the Engineering Design Show. This is held once again at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry on 19th and 20th October, you will find igus® on stand D20, please drop by to see the latest igus® e-chains®, chainflex® cables, and dry-tech® bearings, we will be serving drinks and light refreshments all day every day.

We will also be exhibiting at Advanced Manufacturing at the NEC, Birmingham on 2nd and 3rd November, you will find igus® on stand H40. Again you can see the latest igus® products while enjoying drinks and light refreshments.
