High-performance plastics for very different applications in the packaging industry

Diverse plastic solutions for very different applications in the packaging industry

Safety, precision, short throughput times – These are the main requirements for machines and equipment in the packaging industry. To enable you to place your trust in safe and reliable components, we supply plastic solutions that have been specially developed for moving applications. Whether in forming, filling, weighing and sealing machines, in tubular bag machines or pharmaceutical packaging machines or in strapping machines and dosing systems – we offer machine components that work without any external lubrication and meet the strict requirements for food hygiene and food safety.

Tubular bag packing machines

Easy to install and easy to clean

The company Hastamat from Germany uses igus® products for its tubular bag packing machines. Lubrication-free and maintenance-free drylin® linear guides withstand adverse ambient influences.

Short installation time, long service life

Beyer Maschinenbau GmbH was looking for an energy supply system that provides the stability and durability needed in its machines for the beverage industry. The E4.1L energy supply system from igus® meets more than these requirements. Due to its design, it is easy to fill and assemble while being cable-friendly at the same time. It therefore shortens assembly times and ensures long-lasting cables.
