The construction of increasingly larger ships poses high demands on the production processes in any wharf. igus® products display their strengths in ship construction and processing and also in many other overall shipbuilding applications: They provide safe energy supply systems for indoor cranes, welding and cutting facilities, material testing instruments, robots und transporters, etc.
Optimize the service life of your facilities and at the same time reduce the process costs with igus® high-performance polymer products. igus® products are suited for applications in almost all environments: Heat, cold, damp, dirt – we always have a solution.
An overview of the highlights:
Maintenance- and lubrication-free, predictable service life
Resistant against corrosion, salt water, chemicals and UV radiation
Suitable for use in extreme temperatures
Easy installation, flexible and modular
energy chains supply energy, data and signals and are continuously in motion. We offer you all components - e-chains®, special cables, plug connectors, accessories - individually or as complete system.

Eight gantry cranes connected in series travel a total length of 180 m with plastic energy chains.
In contrast to metal and bronze bearings, the igus® bearings do not corrode due to their high-performance polymer structure and are for this reason the ideal choice for underwater application.
High load capacity and durable
Corrosion-proof in sea water
Series CF27.D servo cables in underwater applications.
Since the ship loader started operations in 2000, no troubles, either mechanical or in the cables, have occurred in the energy chain area.
Ball bearing assemblies are very precarious due to the lubricant particularly under water. Stainless steel guidances cannot be considered due to the high costs. Plastic is used also for hygienic reasons.
The "Mercruiser Six" is designed for high speed racing boats.
Boat motor lifting device and inner boom roll-up device equipped with plastic plain bearings.
The maintenance-free polymer bearings are used in rust-proof roller chains, which are employed to drive main and auxiliary equipment.
Now freedom from corrosion is an important argument for the application of iglidur® G plain bearings in ship fittings.
For protection against outdoor influences the connection cables of the solar cell were mounted in an E2 micro energy chain.
