When is an e-chain® a beam?
It may not seem like an obvious comparison; a beam and an energy chain but fundamentally they are one of the same. Read all about why the two are compared and where the common ground lies.
Micro flizz: the compact, maintenance-free e-chain® system
Ensuring the cables supplying energy in the energy chain systems in paramount. This is where the Microflizz system is ideal. This fully encased system protects the cables and gives them a longer service life.
Long travel path – how do I find the right cable?
Long travel distances place high demands on the cable used and its durability. In today’s post, we cover what these are and how we can find out whether our management meets these requirements.
Durability, line structure, inner composition, and suitability are crucial points to take into account when selecting the right cable for your application.
iglidur® polymer bearings with felt seals is a winning combination
Protecting the bearing and shaft to ensure a longer life is a game changer. With the introduction of the felt seal, igus® have created such a product which can be used in dirty environments and will still manage to protect both the bearing and the shaft!
How is using polymer bearings in bicycles advantageous?
Small components can get overlooked when designing anything really! Sometimes it is only when it comes to replacing broken parts that people consider switching to a different material. Here’s why considering igus® products at the beginning can save you time, weight and hassle.
What to expect when igus® are involved with a floating pontoon
Occasionally you can experience a challenge in installing e-chain® systems. Installing one in lockdown and on a floating pontoon certainly had it’s moments but igus® accepted the challenge and here’s how it turned out.
The adaptability of the PRT-04
Adaptability is essential to ensure products and companies can evolve. The PRT-04 was introduced last year and this year igus® have increased the slewing rings versatility by adding accessories into the mix.
Low bending makes the difference
The bend radius is an essential topic in the production and use of various cables. Low bending makes the difference. In today’s post, we cover exactly what this is about.
We offer our chainflex® cables with the smallest possible bending radii without sacrificing the tried and tested and necessary features. Resilience and durability. Low bending is the keyword for the optimal combination of these cable properties.
