Our Industry Solutions

iwis drive systems help shape technological progress in numerous industries. Our broad product portfolio stands for decades of experience and extensive expert knowledge.

Numerous successful projects form the foundation on which our engineers develop the right solution for every challenge in your industry – with all relevant factors in mind.

We think in solutions!

Logistics and Conveyor Technology

A wide variety of conveyor and drive chain systems are used. The demands on chain characteristics such as fatigue strength, breaking loads, chain tolerances, surface, material qualities, lubricants or even freedom from lubricants and their reproducibility are enormous.

Packaging Industry

Chains and chain systems for the highest demands on precision, speed and durability. Precision chains from iwis guarantee uniform parallel running with exact positioning and an outstanding service life. Depending on the application, maintenance-free or corrosion-resistant chains with high-quality initial lubrication are also used.

Food Industry

Hygiene regulations, various temperature ranges or corrosion resistance are requirements for drive systems in food production. Food approved lubricants or maintenance-free chains for the food industry can be found here.

Confectionery Industry

The confectionery production must meet extreme requirements: steady, reliable parallel running, precise positioning and optimised downtimes. In addition, cleaning, relubrication and the corresponding product safety are of increasingly importance.

Building Materials Industry

Typical applications in the construction industry involve conveying heavy loads over long distances in harsh environments. The simple, robust design of our cast steel chains means they are suitable for pulling even the heaviest loads in the toughest conditions.

Lifting Equipment and Fork Lifts

Typical areas of application for leaf chains are forklifts, lifting equipment, container lift trucks, working platforms, machine tools and applications in the steel industry. iwis is a system supplier for chains, idler rollers and connecting materials.

Bakery Industry

The bread and baking industry places high demands on chain technology. We offer perfectly tailored solutions to take account of critical aspects such as hygiene regulations, different temperature ranges, high precision and corrosion resistance.

Meat Processing Industry

iwis offers reliable, robust, and hygienically safe chain solutions for all areas of meat processing and cutting – from slaughtering to packaging.
