In general, it can be said that xiros polymer ball bearings are preferable to iglidur plain bearings where rotating movements with velocities above 1.5 metres/second can occur continuously with low loads. The significantly lower coefficient of friction of the polymer ball bearings compared to plain bearings ensures less heat generation and lower wear. Decisive is […]
The variety of iglidur materials is the result of very different customer requirements over almost the last three decades. Development of a good plain bearing material is often like squaring the circle. If an improvement is made in one particular direction, this usually happens at the expense of another property. – Most technical applications can […]
1: Wear test with oscillating motion of an iglidur plastic plain bearing from igus. _x000D__x000D_ Influencing factors: Selection of the shaft: Different shaft materials are recommended for different plain bearings. Each shaft-bearing combination has different wear results. Load: With increasing radial loads or surface pressures, the wear of the plain bearings also increases. Some plain […]
With a few application data, it is possible to make a preliminary selection with the help of the iglidur product finder or calculate the service life with the iglidur service life calculator. The large variety of materials is quickly reduced and the suitable materials are what is left over. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You […]
At igus, we have the right sensors for linear systems, slewing ring bearings and plain bearings in the product range. They all belong to the products, which enable predictive maintenance. DLT.W – Sensor for wear in drylin T linear systems Is integrated in the liner Reports wear of the liner in good time This allows […]
