Egg-cracking machine

Modular and hygienic egg breaking machine

The company JSL Solution Pte Ltd has developed a machine for breaking half-boiled eggs. The machine can crack and distribute the eggs at the touch of a button, ensuring the freshness of the eggs. The egg is automatically transported from a tray to the cooking plate and separated. The empty egg shells are then transported to a separate compartment.
The maintenance-free and lubrication-free components are suitable for food applications with the highest hygiene requirements.

Barobot

drylin spherical insert bearings in the bartender robot

A robot that replaces the bartender at a house party: that's the idea behind Barobot, developed by two inventors and founders of a Polish start-up. The machine can independently produce 1,000 cocktails from 12 bottles. For the transport carriage, which glides on a steel rod and moves the glass to the bottles, the developers were looking for a bearing with as little play as possible that is quiet, food-safe and cost-effective. Conventional metal ball bearings were not satisfactory. At igus, the perfect solution was found in drylin linear spherical insert bearing ...

Corrosion-resistant coffee machine

Corrosion-resistant linear guide for coffee machines

This coffee machine brews coffee at the perfect temperature. A drylin N low-profile linear guide system guides the hot water through the machine into the coffee filter. The decisive factors for choosing the plastic guide were its resistance to corrosion from water and water vapour and its smooth movement with absolute freedom from lubricants.

Lubrication-free bearings for coffee grinders

Lubrication-free plain bearings for coffee grinder

The grinder grinds coffee beans into very fine powder. To ensure optimum ground coffee quality, the grinder mechanism must operate consistently and precisely. The bearings must also be very strong and not become clogged with coffee dust. Our lubrication-free iglidur plain bearings ensure this.

Lubrication-free bearings for pizza vending machines

Bearing components in a pizza vending machine

This innovation from the fast food sector can bake a deep-frozen, pre-baked pizza within two minutes and serve it to the customer. Among other things, the machine features a new type of infrared high-performance oven. The pizzas are stored in a deep-frozen state. All bearing components used must therefore function at -20°C.

Tested in the test laboratory for use in the real world

All products are tested for wear and durability under real-life conditions in the igus test laboratory, the largest in the industry. The results are entered into our service life calculation tools for precise durability predictions.

Upon request, igus carries out customer tests to check product use under completely tailored conditions.
