The expert can help engineers quickly find the right lead screw system part for their application and will also predict service life. Finally, order the items or request further information from us.
The configurator enables engineers to quickly find the right lead screw and machine the pins at both ends. The application generates a dimensioned drawing of the configuration directly. Engineers can then order the lead screw or request further information.
The patented dryspin® high helix lead screw technology is based on wear-resistant igus® high performance polymers specially developed for lead screw systems. With properties and shapes that match plastic lead screw nuts and lead screws, dryspin® thereby provides an even longer service life and more efficiency for high helix lead screws. With lubrication-free properties, dryspin® lead screw systems are also suitable for applications in hygienic environments and cleanrooms.
Lubrication and maintenance-free
Higher efficiency (up to 82%)
Extended service life due to asymmetry
Media-resistant
The radius tooth design ensures low-noise, low-vibration running
Service life can be calculated online
Geometry with a vibration-dampening radial pre-load for smoother running.
Geometry with axial play reduction, automatically adjusting for minimised axial play throughout its service life.
Compact geometry for small installation spaces, dimensions identical to commercially available metal bearings.

drylin® lead screw systems can be adapted to individual requirements and can therefore be used for a large number of different applications.
This filling system demonstrates the wide variety of lubrication-free rotary and linear bearing technology deployed successfully at Küppersbusch GmbH.
A high level of efficiency is achieved thanks to the lead screw systems' low coefficient of friction.
Lubrication-free plain bearing components from igus® have proven their value at Krones for many years.
igus® lead screw systems can be used even in the most extreme of environments and with high loads. They are also maintenance- and lubrication-free.
Lead screw systems are lubrication-free, shed virtually no particles and are therefore ideal for cleanrooms.
Lead screw systems are machine elements that convert rotary movement into linear motion. drylin® lead screw systems are always based on self-lubricating plastic nuts, thus enabling long-lasting operation without external lubrication.
