With econ, igus® defines the cost-effective maintenance-free entry-level models of the drylin® linear axes. There are suitable entry-level models in almost every product line and installation size, either with a lead screw or toothed belt. The econ series is characterised by cost-effective components produced via injection moulding, anodised aluminium profiles and a fast assembly. drylin® econ models are configured and delivered so that they are ready to install and are thus the perfect alternative to complex in-house solutions for simple adjustment tasks.

... and reduce costs by up to 40% with drylin® linear bearings. Lubrication-free drylin® linear solutions can replace metallic recirculating ball bearing systems in almost all areas of use.
More than 500 tests per year in our 250 m² test laboratory show that lubrication-free drylin® linear solutions can replace metal recirculating ball bearing systems in many applications.
drylin® ZLW in linear axes of an order picking system enable high picking speeds with quiet operation.
Conventional ball systems were not suitable because they require lubrication, which may lead to impurity of the wooden plates.
With maintenance-free drylin® ZLW linear guides the packaging machine for candles operates without any problems.
The drylin® components in the axes are flexible, have a low weight and can be installed quickly.
