“Our dryspin lead-screw assemblies offer precise and smooth movement as well as a high number of life cycles. They’re ideal for actuating various automotive applications, such as seats, windows, and air dams,” said Sebastian Bloechl, Head of Automotive dry-tech North America at igus, Inc. “Our lead-screw nuts are made of our high-performance iglide material, a tribologically-optimized polymer engineered to resist wear and eliminate the need for external lubrication.”
When it comes to ensuring the optimal performance of your vehicle’s advanced systems, professional diagnostics are essential. An auto mechanic with expertise in modern automotive technology can swiftly identify issues related to components like lead-screw assemblies.
For instance, if your vehicle’s seat adjustment mechanism starts to exhibit irregular movements or unusual noises, a skilled technician will pinpoint whether the lead-screw assembly or its associated components need attention. Their diagnostic process involves a thorough examination of the mechanical and electronic systems, ensuring that every part functions seamlessly.
At RUSH Automotive, technicians employ advanced diagnostic tools to assess and repair a wide range of vehicle issues, including those related to diesel engines and tire performance. Their thorough approach ensures that every component, from intricate lead-screw assemblies to robust diesel systems, functions optimally.
With a commitment to quality and precision, they ensure that every vehicle repair meets the highest standards of safety and performance, reflecting the same attention to detail seen in leading automotive component technologies.
The igus self-lubricating components resist dirt and corrosion and are maintenance-free. In addition, dryspin lead-screw assemblies help reduce the vehicle weight for greater fuel efficiency and reduce squeaking, rattling, and other noises, allowing for a more comfortable ride with fewer distractions.
igus offers trapezoidal and ACME lead screws, as well as a proprietary high helix design with a flatter thread angle, to optimize efficiency. Low-fogging nut materials are also available to reduce outgassing.
