Lighting equipment

The stage lighting systems used in lighting equipment must be lightweight, and operate quietly and reliably. By using igus® high-performance plastics, spotlights can run lubrication and maintenance-free. Plastic plain bearings and linear guides from igus® allow quiet and smooth movement because they do not use metal balls. Compared to rotating steel ball bearings, the simpler type of movement reduces noise, while saving up to 40% in costs. In addition, energy chains prevent cable failures and extend machine runtimes.

Tested in the laboratory

All products are checked in the igus® test laboratory, the largest in the industry, under real-life conditions with regard to wear and durability. This makes it possible to accurately predict their service life. Upon request, igus® carries out customer tests so as to check the use of the products under completely unique conditions.
