Igus Inc. has added domestic standard sizes to its maintenance-free, lubricant-free resin linear bushings from the "Drylin R" series and has begun domestic sales. These sizes correspond to those commonly used in Japanese design environments, allowing for smoother design adaptations and part replacements compared to conventional European standard products. With the introduction of new sizes, there is no longer a need to design around sizes for domestic applications, making it easier to introduce Drylin R as a substitute for existing standard parts. This is particularly relevant for environments that require dust resistance, water resistance, and chemical resistance, addressing the need to replace traditional metal bearings. We will continue to create products that balance global quality with local responsiveness, supporting the manufacturing needs of our Japanese customers. ■ What is Drylin R? Drylin R is a linear bushing that performs linear motion along a shaft, using high-performance resin materials with self-lubricating properties. Its ball-less structure achieves low noise, maintenance-free operation, and high durability.

Igus Inc. will be exhibiting at the "28th Manufacturing World Machine Element Technology Exhibition M-Tech Osaka," which will be held for three days from October 1, 2025 (Wednesday). This year's theme is "Go Zero!" We will showcase a variety of products that contribute to reducing maintenance effort and costs without the use of lubricants, and we will propose solutions utilizing igus's unique high-performance resin materials.
