COST-EFFECTIVE PRT SLEWING RING BEARINGS

Igus will be highlighting its cost-effective PRT slewing ring bearings, which use two self-lubricating, low friction polymer sliding elements in place of ball bearings. The slewing ring modules are highly wear resistant, easy to install, and completely maintenance free. 

Also in the spotlight will be Igus' new maintenance-free linear unit for format adjustments. DryLin® EasyTube is a completely lubrication-free, compact and lightweight system, consisting of just six individual parts: a leadscrew, tube, two clamping rings, an attachment flange and slide block. The tube guides the slide block and is available either in anodized aluminum or stainless steel. The trapezoidal leadscrew and nut are integrated into the tube so they are protected against external influences. The entire EasyTube system is kept as small as possible with this space-saving design. Potential applications for this product include those in the food manufacturing and packaging industries. www.igus.com
