Material expertise for cables and connectors. The following applies to cables and connectors: only if the materials are suitable for the application can the user be sure that the functions are correct. This is why all connection solutions are regularly put through their paces in Lapp's test centers.

Machine data is important for greater plant safety and efficient maintenance, says Frank Blase. The Managing Director of Igus tells us what innovations the motion plastics specialist will be presenting in Hanover and what potential there is in the field of tribo-plastics.
Machine learning, big data and Industry 4.0 - these buzzwords have long since become real concepts. With intelligent products such as smart plastics from Igus, companies can, for example, increase the reliability of their systems, plan maintenance work precisely and thus save costs.

Connecting cables for medical devices are subject to stringent requirements. Especially when cables are used between the generator and handpiece/applicator and therefore also come into contact with the patient.

Low effort when connecting end devices, simple installation with just one tool and a high data transmission rate: the Etherline PN CAT.6A Fast Connect from Lapp combines these important features.
The Lapp Group's turnover increased by 13.9% to EUR 1,026.8 million in the 2016/17 financial year. This is the first time that the global market leader for integrated cable and connection technology solutions has achieved sales of more than one billion euros in a single year.

The new Profinet cable from Lapp combines a high data transmission rate, minimal effort when connecting end devices and simple installation with just one tool.

In order to avoid machine downtimes, it is important to use robust and durable machine elements. This is where the lubrication- and maintenance-free high-performance plastics from Igus come into their own. Using the example of industrial trucks, the company shows where motion plastics can be used.

Using the example of industrial trucks, igus will be demonstrating at LogiMAT where high-performance polymers for moving applications can be used everywhere.
