Dental technology and treatment units

Sequences of movements without sticking or slipping - for treatment units or temperature-resistant moving elements used for sintering or melting-out furnaces igus® motion plastics® are used e.g. in dental X-ray systems for adaptation to the patients, for the supply of media in the adjustment mechanisms of treatment units, for "frictionless" movement of surfaces and device carriers, in top hat furnaces or in machining centres for the manufacture of dentures
 
Advantages of igus® products in dental equipment and treatment units:

Good coefficients of friction

Payloads > 100 MPa possible

Lubrication-free and clean

Small bend radii possible
