Solution
The customer's requirements presented the KOMODUS engineers with major challenges. With the very strict sterility requirements and the demands on the versatility of the line, the use of
drylin R linear bearing technology using
drylin R liners made of the material iglidur X (XUM-01-40, XUMO-01-20, XUM-01-25) represented an optimal solution for most of the problems and restrictions. The bearing housings are small, require no protection or sealing and are completely lubrication-free and maintenance-free. This saves the user time and money in the long term.
Thanks to the online service life calculator, the customer was able to precisely determine the life expectancy of the bearings, taking into account speeds and loads during operation. By using iglidur X, the purchaser can be granted a guarantee of 24 months with 3-shift operation.
