27.08.2022 New general catalogue 2022 and new program overview 2022

2022 is a very special year for us. Because Inocon was founded exactly a quarter century ago, even then with the goal of offering a portfolio optimized for absolutely every application. None of that has changed in the last 25 years – quite the contrary. We have successively perfected and expanded our selection by adding flexible assembly elements and, most recently, complex linear units.

Just in time for our anniversary, we have updated our look as well as our product world. You can see the result yourself in the form of the newly designed catalogue enclosed here. All products are presented here in detail, with all dimensions, functions and variants. Not only did we optimize the layout and information, we also gave thought to simplifying the ordering process for you. The key lies in the modified article number structure. Thanks to this improvement, even the most specific article can be assigned a unique, logically constructed number. To see just how easy the new ordering process is, go to pages 4 and 5 of the catalogue.

And while we are on the subject of improvements: Take a look at the large selection of special precision double tube linear units starting on page 316.

All this will be offered online soon as well – so that you never miss a new product, special offer or technical change. Our new website is launching soon, and we will let you know when it is ready.

We hope you enjoy looking through our catalogue, and we look forward to your feedback.

Sincerely,

Your INOCON Team

INOCON – connecting solutions

It all started in a small office in 1997 in the center of Rheinbach. Today is INOCON one of the leading providers of construction elements such as Pipe clamp connectors or linear units. New manufacturing processes, maximum quality, customer-specific special solutions, short delivery times and technical advice make INOCON to a reliable and competent one Partner. Whenever it's about Positioning systems, portal structures or just fixtures in plant construction, INOCON is the first choice.

The range is constantly growing the specific requirements of Customers from numerous industries originate, for example from labeling technology, of food production research and development facilities. Our logistic center Our company headquarters in Rheinbach Because the developed individual Solutions often find their way into the normal portfolio from which then all customers benefit. INOCON thinks for the practice.

That was already the case when Walter-Franz Marxen founded INOCON. As boss of a planning office for special machine construction the engineer knew it again and again at universally applicable Standard elements were lacking. Pipe clamp connectors were particularly popular and linear units, components So, which is indispensable in plant construction were and are. INOCON develops own products with the claim better solutions than to offer on the market.

With the move to the Rheinbach Industrial area started in 2005 then the expansion of our own production line, to even faster and more flexible to individual customer requirements – even in small quantities - to be able to react. These competences were successively supplemented, installed a powder coating plant and other CNC machines. INOCON now produces in several production halls. So can INOCON within 48 hours Deliver incoming orders – for special urgent orders, the overnight express ready.

INOCON not only optimizes shipping, the production and its portfolio: too it has the aspect of sustainability company in view. Since 2020 is coming the electricity comes entirely from renewable sources sources and the photovoltaic roof system. And so INOCON connects in all areas of innovative thinking, Application focus and stable Optimize.

01.11.2021 Optimized for evolution

Even more precise, low-friction and more dynamic:
INOCON offers new precision double-tube linear units in a wide variety of versions and thus enables a seamless upgrade of existing adjustment units.

Friction and roller bearing versions

The new precision double tube linear unit PD is backed by a comprehensive system that combines numerous variants with regard to tube diameter, travel distances, spindle direction, guide element size and materials. The guide element is moved by a trapezoidal or fine thread spindle or a recirculating ball screw. It can make use of quadruple friction bearings or – for even greater precision – roller bearings with linear bushes. All newly developed versions enable kinematics with considerably reduced maintenance requirements and higher repeatable precision. The movement forces required are also reliably low, even under load.

New spreading mechanism replaces clamping slits

Instead of using a clamping slit, the end caps and the two guide tubes are fastened with an elegant internal spreading mechanism to ensure precise spacing and parallel alignment. Coupled with the adjustment range of the guide element with friction bearing, this results in minimal play and enables applications with high precision requirements. If necessary, the spindle can be secured against unintended turning with an integrated clamp. All linear units can be ordered in the material combinations of aluminum/steel and aluminum/stainless steel plus an entirely stainless steel version.

Backwards-compatible and ready for the future

Because the new precision double tube linear units PD are an evolutionary improvement over established types, they can easily be used as replacements for the other models, which are still included in Inocon’s product range.



Accessories adapted to standard

The shaft end of the spindle can be present on one or both sides. The shaft length is based on the respective features – with hand wheels, position indicators or combinations of both elements. The adaptation of angle gears and transmission units is also provided for; both are available separately as standard accessories. Bellows for protection of the guide tubes and the spindle, connecting plates and additional following guide elements further expand the range of applications; these are available on request.

30.04.2021 INOCON e-Newsletter April 2021

Dear Sir or Madam,

a lot has happened at INOCON in the last few weeks and we are pleased to present our latest developments to you with this e-mail.

In addition to this, we would like to thank you for the great cooperation and support in this extraordinary times and farther wish you, your family and your colleagues health and strength!

Your INOCON team

Precision and customer satisfaction are our top priorities, so we are all the more pleased when our customers confirm this. “To make it short: the linear units make a good impression! Everything fits. ” We got this feedback from our customer who installed our new precision double-tube linear units PD.

The new PD series has completely closed and mechanically processed slides and end elements for distortion-free assembly thanks to a special internal spreading technology.

Like the previous ILD series, the PD variant is also offered as a right or left thread, right and left thread or as a split spindle variant, each with a single or double slide.

Bellows

Precision is often a very important aspect in constructions, therefore it is often necessary that linear units are also protected. Bellows not only protect guideways from contamination, they also prevent the operator from accidentally reaching into the machine and injuring himself.

From now on we have double-tube linear units also available from stock with bellows.

Disinfectant dispenser assembly

Special times require special measures!
Innovative construction elements from INOCON are also in demand now, e.g. as brackets for disinfectant dispensers:

3 clamp connectors, 2 tubes and 1 aluminum profile frame are sufficient for a stable and mobile construction.

08.08.2019 Press release - Powder coating against corrosion

In corrosive environments, stainless steel is the material of choice.
Often, however, cheaper solutions are also sufficient, for example high-quality powder-coated parts.
Thanks to their powder coating, the INOCON aluminum clamp connectors are still undamaged after 500 hours in the salt spray chamber.

How do powder coatings actually perform? INOCON had this question answered by a standards-compliant assessment. The Institute for Electroplating and Surface Treatments Solingen (IGOS) placed a standard cross clamp in the test chamber and subjected it to a longterm salt spray test. The aluminum clamp receives a black powder coating at the factory that is extremely corrosion-resistant at a thickness of about 180 µm. After 240 hours, after 360 hours and even after 504 hours, the test as per DIN EN ISO 9227 NSS:2017-07 caused no discernible corrosive alteration of the standard part. This exceeds even the target time for the highest resistance class C5 as per DIN 55633:2009-04 by an impressive 24 hours. The assessment by IGOS states that the test specimen had “no visible alterations on the tested surface”. Further testing beyond 500 hours was dispensed with for economic reasons.

Economical and durable

Powder coatings are very durable and corrosion-resistant because they prevent corrosive media from contacting the sensitive substrate beneath – in this case aluminum. INOCON generally applies powder coatings using an electrostatic process that significantly reduces material losses due to overspray. After subsequent fusing at high temperature, the coatings are sufficiently thick and pore-free – even on edges and corners, meaning that weak points due to edge thinning are avoided.

Powder coatings are considered exceptionally economical and environmentally sound; after all, no solvents are used during application.

Lighter and less expensive

With such high-quality powder coatings, INOCON offers interesting alternatives to connecting elements of stainless steel. The aluminum parts are not only less expensive, they are also lighter – an important feature in many weight-sensitive applications.

10.04.2019 Tube clamp selection expanded

The extensive Inocon product range of tube clamps in diverse designs as well as linear units, including accessories, covers many possible applications. Inocon is now expanding this product range with two new items.

The two new Inocon products of monitor mounts (including VESA adapter plates) and locking guide elements FM-RS and KM-RS expand the usability and potential applications for tube clamps and ensure that an appropriate solution is available for every customer requirement.

Monitor mounts with connection stud

The use of touch screens, panels, displays and monitors on production machines has now become common practice and is defined by the VESA standard for mounting monitors. The Rheinbach-based tube clamp specialist utilizes this standard to create a practical interface in the form of a monitor mount that is coordinated with the existing Inocon portfolio. The monitor mount is focused on the core functionality, and the connection stud makes it extremely simple to fasten the mount to all Inocon connection elements according to the given installation situation. In combination with rotary or flanged joints, it is possible to achieve any number of degrees of freedom and adjustment options.

Locking guide elements for recurring positions

With locking guide elements based on cross or flange tube clamps, Inocon is establishing a new category of format adjustment options. They allow for quick and easy movement to recurring positions on a square tube by means of a moving guide element. The locking guide element is stopped at the desired locations by a locking or latching pin that engages in the provided holes. The variable connection element permits quick and accurate adjustment, making it suitable for use on all machines requiring individually defined positions. The matching hole patterns on the associated tubes can be obtained directly from Inocon based on the order code.
