Energy management in press lines
Strothmann's automation solutions for press lines are individually tailored and guarantee high availability and a long service life - requirements that the installed cable carrier systems from Tsubaki Kabelschlepp must also meet.
The medium-sized family business LTK Lineartechnik Korb specializes in products and services in the fields of linear, machine and handling technology and is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.
Due to frequent cleaning cycles in food industry equipment, conventional bearings often only have a short service life. A food manufacturer replaced them with Molded Oil bearings from NSK, tripling their service life and saving more than 52,000 euros per year.
Space-saving energy management

The Plane-Chain from Igus is an energy chain concept for long travel distances and high speeds. With an E-Chain lying on its side in a special guide trough, the system ensures a compact and fail-safe energy and data supply.

Pneumatic swivel units convert the linear movement of the pistons into a rotational movement. The handling units rotate slightly more than 180 degrees to provide degrees of freedom for installation and assembly.

For the front suspension of a new recumbent tricycle model, Azub Bike was looking for wear-resistant plain bearings that could withstand dirt, dust and water. Their solution: Iglidur-G plain bearings from Igus.
At Motek, Dr. Tretter will be exhibiting versatile tolerance sleeves. They can be seen in a special application: as shock absorbers in fall protection systems that soften the impact on people in the event of a fall.

If the time and costs involved in prototype production are excessive, it can become economically critical for start-ups. Easelink from Graz therefore relies on Igus gears from the 3D printing service.
Polymer bearings in debarking machines

After the grape harvest, de-stemming machines ensure that the grapes are carefully separated from the stems. Lubricant-free and maintenance-free Iglidur-J plain bearings are used here to reliably support the internal drum.
