igus, a global manufacturer of motion plastics, has launched the igusGO app, a pioneering mobile application that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionize the way industries select and manage motion plastic products.
Intuitive AI at Your Fingertips
The igusGO app is ingeniously designed to simplify the selection process for motion plastics. Simply snap a photo of their machinery or application, and users can receive AI-driven recommendations for the most suitable igus products, ranging from bearings and linear guides to cable carriers. This innovative approach enhances efficiency and significantly extends the service life of machines, leading to substantial cost savings.
A Hub of Inspiration and Community Engagement
Frank Blase, CEO of igus, emphasizes that the app is more than just a tool; it's a source of inspiration and a platform for community engagement. With over 450 industrial applications already recognized and more added daily through user submissions, igusGO is rapidly becoming a collaborative hub for sharing and discovering new project ideas.
Effortless Reordering with AI Precision
A standout feature of igusGO is its ability to facilitate the quick reordering of spare parts, particularly the igus e-chain energy chain series. The app's AI can identify the correct replacement part from a photograph, streamlining the ordering process for over 50 product series. Peter Wirth, Head of Digital Sales and Marketing at igus, highlights this as a key benefit for company employees managing maintenance and inventory.
Accessibility and Future Enhancements
Available in English and German, the igusGO app can be downloaded for free on Android, iOS, and as a web version. Looking ahead, igus plans to integrate an AI chatbot for instant user support, further enhancing the app's functionality.
