Ultimate driving simulation with lubrication-free bearing technology

The use of a driving simulation can pose a number of challenges. The parts used are often too heavy, which leads to increased friction and requires regular maintenance. Lubricants are often used that make it difficult to clean the parts easily.

This results in noises that can make the simulation experience seem unrealistic. Installation is often complicated and not customised to individual customer requirements. These factors also mean that a long service life is not guaranteed.

In a driving simulation, various components from igus® are used to implement the movements in the yaw, pitch and roll directions. These include drylin® W, drylin® N linear systems and iglidur® for pedal adjustment as well as iglidur® J plain bearings for the accelerator and brake pedals as well as the steering wheel. The products from igus® are characterised by their high reliability and always ensure fast and smooth movements. They are lubrication-free, maintenance-free and show only minimal wear. In addition, they hardly produce any noise and reduce vibrations to a minimum. In order to individually adapt the simulator, customer-specific solutions are particularly important. With the help of the configurator, the drylin® linear systems can be optimally adapted to the respective requirements, be it in terms of different sizes or individual configuration options. All materials are extremely robust and ensure perfect function in various environments.
