motion plastics for the
glass industry
Accuracy plays a vital role in the glass industry, as cutting and trimming to size to meet individual customer requirements involves high-precision work. Cutting glass to size for tables, mirrors or doors often leaves sharp edges. The edges are processed in a grinding and polishing process so as to minimise the risk of injuries.
From surface, joining and forming technology or in handling: with our e-chain systems, chainflex cables for movement and bearing technology made of tribologically optimised high-performance polymers, we always have the ideal solution at hand for your individual application in the glass industry.

Grupo Turomas-Tecnocat glass processing system

Glass processing at low cost

This facility – the only one in the world – makes it possible to process twelve metres of glass and, at the same time, ensure high productivity. igus e-chains allow for a secure energy supply at different places.
Laser engraving machine, Cerion GmbH

More compact, more cost-effective, more lightweight

The portable laser engraving machines from Cerion GmbH can be found in shops all over the world. During the machine redesign, it was possible to reduce size, price and weight thanks to the linear technology components from igus.
Plant FAST/Z/25, Ernst Pennekamp GmbH & Co.

Higher variability, lower costs

This application, which resembles a robot, slides the glass products arriving from the moulding plant at a temperature of around 500°C into a cooling kiln. Here, our triflex e-chain, which was developed specifically for 3D movements, ensures a safe energy supply.
