Insert-PE
Insert-PE
It is a very hard extremely slippery material, which is used in industry for transport systems. The PE used by us in elevator construction is a high molecular weight low density polyethylene with a molecular weight of more than 10 7. Due to the high compressive strength of 10 N / mm², it can be used in addition to the use as a normal sliding guide for cabin and counterweight, especially for heavy-duty hoists. An additional improvement of the sliding properties is achieved by a peeled surface and additives by MoS 2. The sliding properties are so favorable that the friction coefficients in the unlubricated state far surpass those of the PU and PA materials. So there is no sticking to the rail, not even with a long service life. Driving is smooth at any speed. (Experience up to v = 3 m / s are available). Since PE is also a hard material that transmits sound well, we have placed a Cell VU spacer on the slideways to break the sound bridge between the shoe and the insert, which makes the slideway quiet and mobile at the same time.
