Video of the Week – DryLin WJRM hybrid bearing

For recommended installation of the DryLin® WJRM the main load is carried on the roller bearings, which reduces the driving momentum required, and the plastic sliders compensate any lateral forces.

In construction, the lubricant-free plastic sliding plain bearings ensure the hybrid linear system is robust, insensitive to dirt and humidity, as well as being lightweight and cost-competitive. The polymer rollers, which are also maintenance-free, allow for easy manual adjustment of heavy loads that can weigh up to 50kg. As such, the igus DryLin® WJRM has already been successfully designed into manually adjustable doors, guards, partitions and locks, as well as for light handling tasks.
