Service life, maintenance intensity, recyclability and Industry 4.0 compatibility are important factors that decide on the TCO and environmental balance. But they are by no means the only ones.
For igus, safety comes first. For this reason, when we bring new products onto the market, they are tested beforehand. And for a really long time, over and over again. And then optimised. And tested again. And this goes on until we are satisfied with the service life. Which then lies beyond any norm. For this purpose, igus® has had its own test laboratory since 1985, which now occupies a floor area of 3,800m². And on a small part of it are the test rigs for the igus:bike.
