When you're designing elevated rides, every moving cable matters.

From vertical lifts to observation towers, reliable cable management is critical for keeping power and data flowing safely—without adding unnecessary maintenance headaches. That's why engineers turn to solutions designed specifically for continuous motion, harsh weather, and long service life.

chainflex cables are built and tested for dynamic applications, helping reduce wear, improve reliability, and support uninterrupted ride operation in demanding amusement environments.

Scaling humanoid robotics requires solving hardware challenges like weight, durability, and cost.

Our new white paper, 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁, breaks down how igus is making these machines economically scalable:

✔️ 𝗪𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Polymer parts cut mass to optimize battery efficiency.
✔️ 𝗭𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲: Grease-free materials eliminate oil leaks and downtime.
✔️ 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆: High-performance plastics significantly lower manufacturing costs.

To simplify sourcing, RBTX North America has evolved into one of the largest online marketplaces for humanoids—allowing you to buy complete systems in one place.

Want to see one in action? We'll have an actual humanoid from the RBTX marketplace live at our booth next week.

Compressed air has powered manufacturing for decades—but is it still the most efficient option?

As automation systems demand greater precision, lower energy consumption, and reduced maintenance, more manufacturers are replacing pneumatic cylinders with electric linear motion systems.

In our latest blog, we explore how electric actuators can help:
✔ Reduce energy costs and compressed air waste
✔ Improve positioning accuracy and repeatability
✔ Lower maintenance requirements
✔ Create quieter, cleaner machine designs
✔ Deliver long-term ROI in high-cycle applications

If you're evaluating ways to improve packaging, assembly, material handling, or medical equipment performance, it may be time to rethink your motion system strategy.

Are you choosing linear bearings based on performance requirements or simply following convention?

For years, recirculating ball bearings have been the default choice for linear motion applications. But in environments where contamination, washdowns, maintenance demands, noise, or weight are major concerns, that default choice may not be the best one.

Self-lubricating polymer sliding bearings offer a different approach — eliminating the need for grease while providing reliable performance in challenging operating conditions. From food processing and medical equipment to robotics and automation, these systems can help reduce maintenance, improve uptime, and simplify machine design.

In our latest blog, we explore:
✔ The key differences between sliding and rolling linear motion systems
✔ Common friction myths that influence bearing selection
✔ Where polymer sliding bearings outperform traditional ball bearings
✔ How to determine the right technology for your application

Before specifying your next linear motion system, it may be worth taking a second look at the bearing technology you're using.

Not every rotary application needs the same slewing ring.

From high-load indexing tables to lightweight pivots and ultra-tight installation spaces, each igus® PRT series is built for a different set of priorities.

This section of the new PRT Slewing Ring Guide makes it easier to compare your options:

• PRT-01 for maximum load capacity and durability
• PRT-02 for lightweight, economical designs
• PRT-05 for simple, low-cost rotation
• PRT-06 for ultra-flat installation spaces
• Material, housing and configuration options for each series

Find the PRT slewing ring that fits your application.

How much space is cable storage costing you?

For many facilities, cable stockrooms slowly become crowded with bulky reels, tangled wire, and hard-to-manage inventory. The result? Wasted space, slower maintenance response times, and unnecessary frustration when critical cable is needed.

chainflex CASE offers a different approach.

Store, transport, dispense, and reorder motion cables from a compact, organized system designed to reduce clutter and simplify inventory management. No oversized reels. No wasted floor space. Just easier access to the cables you need, when you need them.

See how manufacturers are transforming cable storage from chaos to organization.
