With the aid of 3D printing, injection moulds can be manufactured at up to 80% lower costs. As a result, 3D-printed moulds are particularly interesting for small batches and samples, and can be commissioned for a quantity of 1 or more. The complete iglidur range of 50 materials is available for the maintenance-free plastic plain […]

Many manufacturers declare their products to be “maintenance-free”. This usually means that the respective bearing is delivered with initial lubrication. As long as the lubrication is intact, no maintenance of any kind is needed. iglidur plastics, in contrast, do not have a film of lubrication and no reservoir of grease that is used up. The homogeneous […]
Under the definition described within ATEX, iglidur plain bearings are not components to be certified. This means that no corresponding certificate is needed for iglidur plain bearings. However, equipment and systems for ATEX applications do have to be tested, as a result of which ATEX requirements also apply to the plain bearings from a technical […]
The pv value is the product of velocity (V) and pressure (P). This value indicates the heat generated in the bearing per unit of time. For plain bearings, a maximum pv value is usually indicated. This is the amount of heat that can be removed per time unit due to the heat dissipation capacity of […]
