Heavy plastics - applications in building material manufacturing
40 years' experienceigus® is a specialist in the area of plastic research and can look back on 40 years of experience here. Specially developed high-performance plastics enable the use of igus® e-chain systems® in almost all application areas. Damp, dirt, chips, heat, cold, we have the solution for every requirement and do not use any steel or other metals in our e-chain® materials. In an increasing number of heavy duty areas, steel systems are being successfully replaced by igus® plastic e-chains® due to their exceptional suitability.
State your requirements and we fulfil them:
Corrosion-free
Cost-efficient, modular design
Long life at minimum maintenance costs
Resistance against dirt, chemicals and high temperatutres
Proven, tested material with igus® system garantee
Low weight with high stability
TÜV certified
That is only a few points that we consider when selecting and designing your "heavy-duty system". See all the things for yourself that are possible in the heavy-duty area with igus® - plastics for longer life®.
Application examples in building material manufacturing
Shelving system for concrete bricks
Data exchange is possible by exchanging the cable drum with an e-chain®.
Porous concrete hardening
Reliable process control in adverse environmental conditions, such as dust, rust and moisture.
Handling roof tiles
No more cork screws and cable failures when transporting roof shingles.
Roof tile factory
Optimum cable guidance even under extreme conditions, like here in a roof tile factory.
Concrete manufacturing
chainflex® control cables significantly reduce the failure rate of the machine in the concrete factory.
Concrete pipe cutter
Concrete cutting machine in extremely heavy-duty operation since three years free of maintenance.
Road construction
An asphalt finisher applies hot and cold bitumen mixtures. The e-chain® supplies the front area of the vehicle and is exposed to extreme dirt.
Stop dog system
A stop dog system based on the drylin® W linear guide has been used here for the accurate drilling of glass.
Positioning of milling heads
The positioning of milling heads is done with drylin® SHT linear slide table in this plant which manufactures aluminum window frames.
Set head for small format tiles
drylin® guide systems in a die head for small size tiles work without problems despite dusty and cramped working conditions.
Wood industry
The igus® preassembled energy chains create a lasting, low-wear connection to the tools.
Veneer assembling
machine
Pivot and rotate under pressure - High-performance polymers in wood working.
Veneer assembling
machine
Veneer jointing
machine ACR Speedstar: Cost advantages through polymer plain bearings.
Mobile and stationary saw mills
Maintenance-free polymer bearings in mobile and stationary saw mills.
Edge processing
machine
Due to the low friction in the use of roller bearings, a complex counter force or gripping mechanism is necessary.
Wood and sandwich processing
Here an energy supply system was developed from standard parts, whose piggyback system at last allocates a
defined place for the large volume suction hoses.
Wood-sawing machines
Unlike in former times, the Homag-Sawtech AG has virtually no more complaints.
Reduced electrical installation time
Energy chains, fully assembled with cables and connectors, are delivered ready for mounting (readychain®) and can be installed immediately. In this way the electrical installation time has been halved.
Wood processing
machine
There is little space available and the cables are strongly stressed due to the complex movements.
