ESWL Products Inc. located in Buffalo Grove, Ill. is a global medical equipment company that develops and manufactures medical products with emphasis on innovative technologies and non-invasive treatments.

One of the company’s developments is a machine that performs noninvasive treatment of chronic heel pain (plantar fasciitis) and other inflammatory bone and tendon conditions. Shockwaves are directed at the discomfort zone, enhancing the body's natural healing process. Accuracy, space limitations and longevity of components were all taken into consideration when designing the machine.

ESWL decided to use DryLin® T and DryLin N linear guide systems and DryLin R linear bearings from igus® Inc. because it was the only solution that met all of the requirements.
