PACK EXPO 2026 - Chicago

Packaging operations need to achieve and maintain high throughput and product quality to remain competitive. This can be difficult to do if a line undergoes frequent changeovers and requires maintenance and greasing of metal components. This maintenance is both time consuming and costly, and the grease used can pose a risk of contamination in food and beverage production. 

A simple solution to this problem is to replace metal components with dry-running plastic alternatives, like those from igus®. igus components are maintenance-free and offer an extensive service life to maximize uptime and simplify changeovers. 

This year, we’re once again showcasing our dry-running solutions at PACK EXPO in Chicago! We’ll be at the show October 18–21 in the North Hall at booth 6142. Visit us to see how self-lubricating components can improve packaging equipment, explore simple end-of-line automation with the RBTX palletizing system, and speak with our industry experts.
