Medical device products

Our plastic for movement has been used successfully for many years in diagnostic imaging, intensive care medicine, therapy, ophthalmology and dentistry. Our e-chain® and cable carry data and energy safely and without interference, for example in ceiling pendants of X-ray machines and Bucky tables. They have been developed for a wide range of movement types and speeds and are also available for tight installation spaces with a small bend radius.
Our bearings have a very good coefficient of friction and are free from external lubrication. As a result, they do not attract dirt and remain clean and hygienic. They ensure precise movements in infusion and dialysis pumps and smooth, maintenance-free adjustment of treatment units in dentistry and ophthalmology.
Another advantage of our motion plastic: they are radiation-resistant, non-ferromagnetic, highly resilient and low-noise.

Success stories

High-precision perfusor dosing with iglidur® plain bearings

For the precise syringe emptying in its perfusors, B. Braun Melsungen AG was looking for an easily mountable bearing with minimal friction coefficients to realise a jerk-free movement in the smallest installation space. The solution: a specially manufactured clip bearing made of iglidur® J material.
