Even today, most applications can run without lubrication and easily save money and time. The lowest-cost lubrication method is the one you don't need.
The costs of lubricants and their subsequent disposal have continued to rise in recent years. Expenses for so-called incorrect and lack of lubrication are not even taken into account. Lubrication: money that you can save for years.
Maintenance not only costs money, but also time. Shortage of skilled labour can also be countered with effectiveness. Recurring lubrication of bearing points is no longer necessary. Maintenance: time that can be saved for years.
To a large extent, forgotten liquid waste consists of so-called FOGs (fats, oil and grease). Half of the lubricants sold worldwide end up as pollution. And one litre of oil can contaminate one million litres of water. Years of unnecessary pollution.
Thousands of customers have been able to increase both the efficiency of their machines and their sustainability by switching to lubrication-free igus products:
A look at the worldwide costs for lubricants and lubrication shows the high savings potential that advanced motion plastics offer. The negative effects on the environment are also avoidable.
