Professional woodworking technician from Hamburg showcases the Dolio small series of wine coolers using maintenance-free igus components at the furniture fair
This year's IMM Cologne International Furniture Fair in Germany has 11 exhibition halls and covers an area of 141,000 square meters. It has once again become the largest furniture event in the world. Here, the furniture industry's creators have demonstrated a variety of new designs and materials. Products. Among them, 15 woodworking technicians from the Gsechs University of Applied Sciences in Hamburg presented a series of very elegant wine cabinets made of teak/oak, cork and slate. Among them, a lubrication-free and maintenance-free igus sliding bearing assembly was used. Revolving door design is originality.

The 2018 IMM Cologne International Furniture Fair took place from January 15th to 21st. Many companies and designers presented their innovative designs to audiences around the world. 15 students from the Gsechs University of Applied Sciences in Hamburg also created and Showcasing their work - a series of wine cabinets named Dolio, the name comes from the Latin word 'dolium' (barrel). The project concept of this series stems from the theme of 'unique opening methods' Tasks. After trying various prototypes, they designed and manufactured 20 pieces of furniture in a few months. The Dolio is a vertical wine cabinet that can hold five bottles of wine. A curved belt. The slate facing door with steel fittings can be rotated 360° around the main body of the wine cabinet to form a closed space. In order to ensure that the revolving door can slide smoothly, they use the iglidur B160 with high wear resistance and low friction coefficient on steel fittings. Wear strips. In addition, the students decided to make their own springs for locking the door. Jorrit Burmeister said: 'After testing, we decided to use igus's iglidur I150 wear-resistant wire to print plastic spring clips. Kinds of engineering plastics strong and broad applicability, and highly abrasion resistance, can withstand a continuous load Dolio wine cooler. '
Easy to process, lubricated, wear-resistant parts
In addition to iglidur I150, igusus, a sports plastics specialist, has five other lubrication-free and maintenance-free iglidur wear-resistant yarns for applications in different industries, such as applications that require permanent loading or chemical resistance. These six wear-resistant yarns are common Dots are 50 times more wear resistant than 3D printed standard materials. 3D printing with igus wear-resistant filaments is a very good choice, especially for small batch production of complex motion wear parts. igus also for customers without 3D printers Provides 3D printing service, which uses iglidur wear-resistant wire and laser-sintered materials iglidur I3 and iglidur I6 dedicated to gears to make wear-resistant parts required by customers. Customers can upload their own application parameters online, select materials, calculate prices and direct Order the required wear parts.
