bike. Solutions for the bicycle industry 40% less costs, 80% less weight, 100% less maintenance plastics for longer life

Your technical innovator and cost reducer, Patrick Carl Phone: +49-2203 9649-265 e-mail: pcarl@igus.de www.igus.eu/bike What began with the Draisian running machine with oiled brass bushes in 1817 advanced over the years into a weight-optimised lifestyle object. "Digital bike" and "bike as a vehicle" are some of the trends that are of great importance in today's bicycle world, and electrification also means new application potentials of bikes in everyday life. This also changes the demands on the components installed on the bike: impact and shock loads are exerted on the bearings used in...

motion? plastics! Tribologically optimised machine parts made of plastic for all kinds of movements. Our slogan can be translated thus. We have been pursuing this idea passionately for more than 50 years. Plastic is light, robust, cost-effective and has low friction. Maintenance? Equal to zero, because our products are without any additional lubrication, show little wear and hardly cause downtimes. We make precise service life prediction with our online tools – simply enter the technical data of your particular application. The 1965 idea: "Show me the ­ plastic part that gives you problem....

Light and robust plain bearings for shocks, edge loads, dirt. The igus® iglidur® plain bearings combine all the advantages of the processed high-performance plastics. They can be used in dry operation and have excellent vibration dampening properties. They have a high stiffness and wear resistance and are resistant to dirt and dust. Due to their high corrosion resistance iglidur® plain bearings from igus® can also be used in damp environments. Major weight reductions can be achieved by replacing metal bearings with iglidur® bearings. Advantages of igus® products in bicycle technology: •...

BUTCHERS & BICYCLES Copenhagen, Morten Mogensen, København V, Denmark. This cargo bike can always be steered easily. This is ensured by robust polymer bearings from igus®, which are used in the steering and tilt mechanism of the front wheels. Compared to conventional bearing solutions, they have the advantage that they are absolutely maintenance-free thanks to the freedom from lubrication, and are also resistant to weathering. In addition, they are much more space-saving and, in small numbers, much more cost-effective than the metal solutions. 12-13 Steering and tilt mechanism with igubal®...

We can also go your way: customised solutions, special designs and special materials - (virtually) everything is possible. The standard is not the right solution for everyone. Therefore, igus® also manufactures a number of customised special designs. Structural and material special solutions such as plain bearings for multiple-edge shafts, bearings with reduced clearance or anti-rotation feature, special lead screw support blocks and glide pads, and so on, are specially adapted to your requirements. Starting from medium quantities we make almost everything possible. 24-25 When it is all...
