Smart bearing technology

iglidur® smart

iglidur® i.Sense plain bearing

  • Avoidance of unforeseen failures
  • Recognise and control maintenance requirements via remote diagnosis
  • Possible as FDA-compliant all-rounder
  • High wear resistance
  • Insensitive to dust and dirt
to the smart plain bearings

Not just for farmers, but for every machine operator, a defective plain bearing can spoil the working day and spoil the mood.

Smart plain bearings are particularly suitable for particularly sensitive or hard-to-reach areas of a machine, as the condition of the bearing can be checked at any time.

Smart linear technology

The smart drylin® W carriage

In addition to condition monitoring using the drylin® W LED carriage, it is also possible to equip a drylin® W carriage for predictive maintenance. 
This then not only indicates that the sliding foils are worn, but also when the optimum time for replacement is. This means you always use the products with the maximum service life, because you will never again replace them too early or too late.
