PROFINET/PROFIdrive integration and fast cycle times of the D1 allow for reliable and flexible control systems for motors in various automation applications

igus increases the flexibility of its D1 motor control, which designers use for electric linear drives, handling systems and robot axes. It is now possible to integrate the D1 seamlessly and quickly into higher-level control systems from Siemens, Beckhoff, Wago and

Inductive Ring Sensors from wenglor Win the Red Dot Award 2025 for Extraordinary Product Design

Wenglor Sensoric has won the Red Dot Award in the Product Design category for its inductive ring sensors. This prestigious award is from one of the largest design competitions

Material scientists have developed PTFE-free versions of the most popular iglidur plain bearing materials. igus is announcing a breakthrough: the material developers in Cologne have succeeded in producing the established polymer plain bearings from the iglidur G, iglidur X and iglidur H series.

The acquisition of Moog Brno s.r.o. and all associated products on October 1, 2024 has helped WITTENSTEIN cyber motor GmbH specifically expand its range of solutions for rotary and linear servo motors and servo actuators. 

Manufacturing can be a rollercoaster ride at times - just for some businesses, that is a lot more literal. Dreamworld on the Gold Coast is one of Australia’s leading theme parks, with millions of visitors a year, drawn by state-of-the-art attractions such as the Sky Voyager flying theatre and the Steel Taipan launched coaster.

Seaports are under pressure worldwide: to remain competitive, terminals have to handle larger ships in shorter periods of time. Therefore, more and more operators use modern components such as igus's robust energy chains that are compatible with Industry 4.0.

Compact, lightweight and low-maintenance: new drylin W linear guide with snap function for precise adjustments - even in small installation spaces

Whether moving to specified spots with a sensor, adjusting a headrest to the desired height or getting a screen into an ergonomic position until it clicks: igus

The French company SCALLOG has developed an autonomous robot called "Boby" that can transport shelves weighing up to 600kg in logistics warehouses.

Works on more than 1,000 metres: igus develops the world's first driven e-chain system for long travels
drive-chain impresses with maximum dynamics and long service life, while saving up to six tons of weight

Almost no limits on long travels, high dynamics, long running times - these are the characteristics that distinguish the innovative igus drive-chain.
