Tailored Solution Engineering for Your Application

Each industry has its own unique requirements for drive solutions. Our engineers develop customized, application-specific concepts — from precise chain design to complete system integration. With state-of-the-art calculation tools, CAD-supported design and extensive real-world testing, we ensure maximum reliability and cost-effectiveness for your machinery and production lines..

At our Munich headquarters, iwis operates the world’s largest test facility for conveyor and drive chains. In addition to fundamental research, we conduct customer-specific wear, strength and corrosion tests — using both standardized test rigs and customized application test setups. This ensures that every solution we deliver meets the highest technological standards and your exact operational needs.

Our Development Priorities

Our development priorities are diverse — but our goal always remains the same: to stay one step ahead through technological leadership and continuous improvement. That’s why we focus on the following key areas:

Increasing the wear resistance and fatigue strength of our products to maximize service life
Pushing the boundaries of tribology in chain joints to boost efficiency and minimize wear
Enhancing corrosion resistance for demanding operating environments
Developing noise-optimized running characteristics for smooth and quiet operation
Using cutting-edge materials, coatings and manufacturing technologies
Reducing weight through advanced design optimization and alternative lightweight materials
Achieving full system optimization by considering the entire chain drive — including sprockets, guides and tensioners — as an integrated solution
