Timing Drive Systems Solutions

Powering Movement. Linking Industries.

Numerous successful projects form the foundation on which our engineers find the right solution for every challenge in your industry, taking into account constantly changing conditions such as new legal regulations, shorter development times, and increased competitive pressure.

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.

Automotive Industry

With high-quality chain drive systems for camshafts, injection pumps, balancer shafts, oil pumps, and auxiliary units, iwis mobility systems, as an innovation-driven supplier to the automotive industry, keeps engines and vehicles of all kinds running smoothly.

Mechanical Engineering

iwis - roller chains with above-average service life, excellent wear resistance and limited length tolerances for specialized applications and various areas of mechanical and plant engineering.

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.

Agricultural Machinery

iwis agrisystems offers not only a wide range of drive chain products for harvesters and chains/kits for retrofitting to all machine makes, but also feederhouse chains, elevator chains, maize gathering chains and chains for round balers, as well as chain accessories. We specialise in the production and development of customer- and application-specific customised solutions.

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.

Drone industry

Micromobility

More and more people are turning to modern, eco-friendly modes of transportation in their everyday lives to cover short distances quickly and easily. Whether it's e-scooters, e-bikes, cargo bikes, or compact electric city vehicles – the variety of micromobility solutions is constantly growing and offers a suitable answer for nearly every urban challenge. Our tailor-made e-motor systems are driving this movement forward.

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.

Medical Technology

Chains with special properties are used in adjustable operating chairs, operating tables, hospital beds, and a number of other medical technology applications. In this particular field chains must satisfy a large number of requirements. For hygiene reasons, and because lubricants are usually prohibited or problematic, stainless steel chains are often used, including the CF b.dry version.
