Lubrication-free, cleanroom-compatible, media-resistant, corrosion-free, low noise – these are crucial criteria for medical equipment components. igus polymer bearings and energy chains exactly possess these properties. Lubrication-free bearings are used in X-ray robots, laboratory devices, patients' chairs, hospital beds and prostheses, among other things. Maintenance-free energy chains are used for the protection and guidance of cables in e.g. operating theatre devices, rehabilitation systems and imaging diagnostic equipment.

Energy chains from the twisterchain series are used in X-ray robots from Buck Engineering & Consulting GmbH. The twisterchain enables safe cable guidance in the case of rotations of up to 540°.
iglidur G bearings are extremely robust and withstand frequent adjustment of the bed without any problems. Due to their material composition, they do not require lubrication and are also corrosion-free and maintenance-free.
iglidur H1 plain bearings, drylin linear technology and lead screw technology are used in MRI machines as they are not ferromagnetic and are impervious to methods of cleaning and sterilisation.
Metal bearings with stainless steel shafts used for this decanter centrifuge led to high costs incurred due to material wear, maintenance and lubrication. Ever since installing iglidur plain bearings, the manufacturer has been able to reduce the costs by 93% and shorten the assembly time by ten minutes.
