LubX®: Low friction plastics - sliding materials
Sliding plastics for conveyors and conveyor systems
LubX® product family
Conveyor systems in various industries are exposed to a wide range of loads and ambient conditions, which have a very strong influence on the friction and wear behaviour of the materials used.
The market launch of LubX® in 2012 by Röchling revolutionised the observation of sliding materials because, for the first time, the interaction of the individual sliding partners in the actual application was used to develop the materials.
Today, our LubX® product family comprises seven matched sliding plastics having exceptional sliding properties for different sliding systems and/or ambient conditions.
To develop our sliding materials, we conducted a large number of tribological tests under various conditions and had our materials tested in test labs of leading scientific institutions in plastics and conveyor technology after testing them in our in-house test labs.
Our sliding materials have been used in conveyor systems all over the world for decades. What we know: Every system has different requirements for the sliding materials used. The information in the table is an initial guide, but on no account can itreplace expert advice on selecting the right sliding material for your conveyor system.
The performance and service life of sliding materials for conveyor systems is determined by various influencing factors. These have to be taken into account for the selection. For instance:
