A Comprehensive Guide to Choosing the Right Mounted Bearings

In a variety of industries, the iglidur plain bearings solve problems. They ensure that bearing points are incredibly durable and do not need to be maintained or lubricated. That is not all, though. Mounted Bearings provides plain bearings for food contact, chemical resistance, or high-load applications, to mention a few, using our several in-house iglidur materials. Explore a range of plain-bearing applications to get ideas, and get in touch with us with any inquiries.

The developer has access to a whole system of self-aligning bearing parts with igubal®, including rod end bearings, pillow block spherical bearings, and spherical bearings. Self-aligning bearings are simple to install, can accommodate any angular deviation, and frequently take the role of specific housings.

All of the advantages of high-performance plastics, such as vibration damping, operating in liquids or chemicals, and resistance to dust and filth that can impair the performance of greased metal components, are available to the user with igubal®. They weigh 80% less than steel, making them extremely light. Due to their tiny size, they require less room for installation and can save money both when purchased and when in use. Because maintenance and installation expenses are eliminated, igubalbearings are also incredibly cost-effective.

In many different manufacturing areas, igus motion plastics components—such as bearings, linear bearings, cable carriers, cables, and automation components—are essential. Igus solutions aid in ensuring accurate, dependable motion for print heads and feed systems in the 3D printing industry. Their sturdy bearings and cable carriers endure challenging conditions in the construction of cranes and heavy-duty equipment, improving efficiency and safety. The corrosion resistance of Igus parts helps offshore companies keep equipment like cranes and winches operating smoothly in challenging, salty environments.

Industrial Bearings: Long service life and minimal cost are made possible by polymer bearings that are optimized for sliding and friction. Polymer bearings are found in many different places in modern machine tools and machining centers. For instance, slewing ring bearings for moving control consoles, novel hybrid bearings for guiding sliding magazine doors, or spherical plain bearings for deflecting toothed belt drives. In contrast to metallic bushings, they are lightweight, durable, lubrication-free, and do not require oiling or grease. Because modern machines are so complicated, Niles-Simmons Industrieanlagen GmbH wants the greatest quality from each component and includes its suppliers early in the design process. For several crucial machine parts, the plant maker now uses Igus goods.

Profile

Bearings for industrial machines : Polymer slewing ring bearings, igubal spherical bearings, hybrid linear bearings, drylin W linear guides, and harnessed plastic energy chains

Requirements: Many movement cycles call for components that are especially wear-, maintenance-, and lubrication-free.

Customer success: Simple installation and removal of the slewing ring bearings, which are available as unit components, "iglidur J" material ensures freedom from lubrication and maintenance and particularly high wear resistance, hybrid linear bearings from igus are also lubrication-free and maintenance-free and reduce the required drive forces in the system

For demanding applications needing high accuracy, high rigidity, and high speeds, igus Precision bearings—more especially, their iglidur® plain bearings and igubal® self-aligning bearings—are made. These bearings are a long-lasting and reasonably priced substitute for metal bearings since they are constructed from tribologically designed high-performance plastics and operate without maintenance and self-lubrication.
