This lesser-known product line combines drylin? linear bearing technology with <a href="https://www.freerunbearing.com/products/Ball-Bearing/79.html" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 112, 192); text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 112, 192);"><strong>ball bearings </strong></span></a>to reduce friction, making them ideal for manual adjustments.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">The WJRM bearings are applicable across multiple industries — wherever linear motion is needed. Medical, 3D printing, furniture, and more can all take advantage of what WRJM hybrid <a href="https://www.wswbearings.com/products/Roller-Bearings/879.html" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 112, 192); text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 112, 192);">roller bearings </span></strong></a>offer. Of course, as with most products from igus, the bearings are self-lubricating, eliminating the need for maintenance and reducing operational volume compared to metallic bearings.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">The new digital tool for the WJRM line offers a few different services. It can calculate the service life of the system, as well as provide pricing and drive force. This is the first time service life for these hybrid roller bearings will be calculable for customers, joining the ever-growing list of products from igus that offer service life calculators. Knowing exactly how long a product will last is essential in planning maintenance schedules and avoiding unplanned downtime for the system.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">“The new tool makes finding the perfect system easier than ever, and having the drive force and service life clearly stated at the end, is really helpful in making sure our parts are right for your system,” says Jennifer Harding, Product Specialist at igus.</span></p><p><br/></p>
