  • Avoid sudden failures
  • Detect and monitor maintenance requirements via remote diagnostics

Five materials in the standard product range

  • iglide® G: the all-round classic
  • iglide® P210: specialist for pivoting, rolling applications and more
  • iglide® J: the versatile endurance runner
  • iglide® A180: the all-rounder for wet areas

Tech up

  • The first plain bearing that recognizes wear—now as standard product range.
  • After reaching a defined level of wear, the system informs the users so that they can plan for maintenance and are not surprised by a premature and unscheduled downtime due to the bearing.

Sustainability

  • Never change the bearing again when it is not necessary

The read-out units

This is how iglide® isense works

The different read-out units consist of two components. The read-out unit itself, and a cable that is suitable for energy chains.
 
Read-out unit
  • The read-out units inform users about the condition of the plain bearing with a green or red lamp.
  • Depending on the design of the read-out unit, it is possible to connect several plain bearings.
Cables
  • We offer two types of connectors. In addition to the standard connector, we also provide an IP65 and a removable version.
  • The cables that are suitable for energy chains are available in lengths of 1, 2, 5 and 10 metres.
