Igus introduce Linear module is lubrication-free
Maintenance-free linear unit for format adjustments has been introduced by igus.
The DryLin EasyTube can be used for adjustment tasks up to 150N in vertical applications, or 500N if used horizontally.
The system is temperature-resistant up to 80°C and has the option of a corrosion-free stainless steel leadscrew. Potential uses for this product are machine tools, food manufacturing and packaging.
DryLin EasyTube has just six individual parts: a leadscrew, tube, two clamping rings, an attachment flange and a slide block. The tube guides the slide block and is offered in either anodised aluminium or stainless steel. The trapezoidal leadscrew and nut are integrated into the tube and so are protected against external environmental conditions.
With this compact system, any applied moment is supported by the tube, so a second guide shaft is not required. The slide block, moment support and leadscrew nut are made from a single moulding of the igus-developed polymer iglidur P, a material with high wear resistance, low friction and minimal moisture absorption.
