Hygienic Plastic Solutions for Lab and Analysis Technology, In-Vitro Diagnostics

Measurement and analysis devices in the medical industry are highly dynamic and compact, and are increasingly becoming automated — whether it’s microtomes, centrifuges, cappers & decappers, analysis systems, pipetting robots, or something else entirely. Our linear axes & motors, e-chains®, gears, lead screw assemblies and other components for laboratory equipment are therefore designed for maximum speeds and a long service life. Our plastic components are completely grease-free and maintenance-free, a key factor for achieving reliable performance over an extensive service life. They also offer cost savings over comparable metal components, have vibration and noise-damping properties, and completely resist corrosion.

Best of all, configurators are available to help calculate the service life of our components based upon application requirements, configure custom solutions down to the specific material used, and even request a quote or place an order.
