PRT slewing ring ball bearing in the furniture industry

OCR cable chain

Routing cables at home or in the office is often a difficult task. Numerous cables from printers, monitors and other devices need to be organised. With the OCR cable guidance system  from igus, this can be done in no time at all. The highlight of this office chain is that you can implement both movable and locking guides and also combine them if required: e-chain links extended = flexible, compressed = locking.

OCO cable chain

Organised cable guidance is essential for mobile desks. The simple, minimalist design blends unobtrusively into any office and ensures a calm, uncluttered look. The closed construction on one side when straight also lends an elegant clarity, while the concealed pin/bore connection also ensures a harmonious overall appearance from the side.

Smooth-running, compact linear bearings for drawers in residential island
The "SQR" is a multifunctional cube with an extendable induction hob that not only allows you to cook, but also to work and live in a compact space. To create plenty of storage space, the inventor relied on compact and lubrication-free drylin linear guides.

Maintenance-free movement for an innovative media supply system
Fly One is a multifunctional media system developed by Hohenloher in the form of a designer ceiling light. It can be unfolded at the touch of a button to supply media such as electricity, data, gas or compressed air. The drive mechanism uses igus plastic components that ensure quiet, maintenance-free operation. Since conventional construction elements were not satisfactory, the designers were also looking for individual components that could be easily printed in 3D at igus.

Ergonomic office chair with quiet and lubrication-free bearings
The designers at Nowy Styl were looking for a bearing that would not make any noise when adjusting and using their ergonomic office chair. They also wanted to do without lubricants to avoid contamination and maintenance costs. The metallic bearings, including needle roller bearings, previously used in this chair were also custom-made and very costly to manufacture. There is a wide variety of plain bearings made of the materials iglidur G and iglidur J. They are cost-effective, robust, quiet and maintenance-free.

Rotating digital flipchart

The compact design of the PRT-02-30 makes it the ideal flip chart solution. Thanks to ready-to-install delivery, it is also easy to assemble. In addition, due to the plastic sliding elements made of iglidur material, maintenance work is no longer necessary after installation.

TV mount with iglidur® PRT slewing ring bearing

The PRT slewing rings can withstand a static axial load of 27,000 newtons and a dynamic axial load of 7,000 newtons. 
The TV mount can also be pivoted, telescoped and rotated up to 360° at the same time. The mount impresses with its innovative unique selling points, such as freedom from lubricants to avoid contamination of technical devices, as well as freedom from maintenance and quiet operation for optimal convenience.

iglidur plain bearings for optimum rotary knob feel
V-Zug AG in Switzerland produces high-quality household appliances that are particularly durable and reliable. In order to achieve the perfect feel for a rotary knob, the developers were looking for an optimal material for the bearing. Brass bearings were out of the question due to their electrical conductivity, and ceramic bearings could not be used either due to their high cost. The solution: iglidur bushings made of the special RN24 material are cost-effective and completely maintenance-free.
