Self-lubricating, FDA-compliant bearing solutions

January 14, 2016 By Mike Santora

Igus-medical-bearing-applicationAt the upcoming SLAS international conference and exhibition, igus will be demonstrating a range of motion plastic components well-suited for medical and laboratory applications. A selection of self-lubricating, FDA-compliant bearing solutions, linear products, and cable management systems will be on hand, along with a range of samples, engineering information, and industry expertise.

igus components are made from high-performance engineered plastics, researched, developed, and tested in-house. They are quiet in operation and require zero external lubrication. Additionally, igus solutions are designed to stand up to water, chemicals, and other media, and are low profile for tight installation spaces.

Whether you require anti-magnetic components for use in MRI systems, resilient bearings for a prosthesis, or quiet and precise linear systems for your laboratory equipment, igus has a wide range of products to choose from. igus offers a huge range of cable carriers, continuous flex cables, as well as plastic bushings, spherical bearings, and linear slides. Thousands of tests are performed on these products each year, allowing for effective lifetime prediction of igus products in your specific application.
