Components for access systems

Trouble-free movement in automated incoming goods inspections

Components for access systems are crucial for the efficient and secure control system of access to buildings and border crossings. These components solve a variety of technical solutions that regulate the entry and identification of people. The challenge here is the permanent and failure-free operation that public access systems often have to withstand.

With motion plastic, access systems can be operated reliably and efficiently while reducing costs at the same time. The product range is characterised by its durability, lubrication-free operation and resistance.

Proven drive systems for EES (Entry Exit Systems) and Smart Borders

The introduction of the Entry Exit System (EES) and the EU's Smart Borders Initiative is revolutionising border controls and increasing efficiency and security at the external borders of the Schengen area. The EES systematically records the entry and exit data of third-country nationals travelling to the Schengen area for short stays. This enables precise calculation and monitoring of the length of stay and helps to combat identity fraud and misuse of travel documents.

igus® offers innovative drive systems that have been specially developed to meet the requirements of modern access systems. Our solutions support the automation and digitalisation of border controls by providing reliable and durable components that meet the high requirements of the EES. For smooth and fast deployment, igus® supplies ready-to-install complete systems for the toothed belt axles and energy chain systems, which enable the adjustment of the camera and display and ensure the power supply and data transmission.
