Components for aerial lifts, telescopic boom platforms


Lightweight and very stable: two main reasons to opt for components from igus in the event of an energy chain failure in work platforms. We have the right energy supply for every application.

Our e-chains, cables, plastic bearings, linear bearings and sliding plates fulfil the tough conditions of devices working outdoors and under continuous load and do not require any additional lubricants.

As energy chains can do without screws, there are no loose or lost parts due to vibrations. No rusting or jamming as made from polymer. Openable at any point you like and assembled in minutes. Cables with high UV resistance, designed for continuous dynamic use in energy chains with a guarantee of up to 36 months. No greasing or regreasing of bearing points, because our plain and linear bearings as well as sliding plates are completely maintenance-free and lubrication-free.

On construction sites, in fire brigade equipment or on a Hollywood movie set: lifting platforms with inclined axes and telescopic extensions are used worldwide. Their designers need energy supply systems that are lightweight, robust, resistant and easy to maintain. Manufacturers have therefore been investing in research and development for decades. This brochure shows you how to improve technology and save costs with our motion plastics technology.
