igus Technology that saves lives

KUALAL LUMPUR, Malaysia - Feb. 11, 2025 - PRLog -- After days of heavy rain, a BINZ all-terrain ambulance navigates flooded roads with ease, thanks to its UNIMOG U4023 base. Developed for disaster situations, it features an innovative stretcher system that BINZ has refined since 2018. This system allows for quick and ergonomic patient transfer, crucial for effective rescue operations. BINZ, with over 85 years of experience, converts 1,500 special vehicles annually, serving various emergency services worldwide.

The demand for reliable rescue technology is high, especially after events like the Ahr Valley disaster. BINZ's stretcher system uses a "double-curve kinematic system" for precision and stability, even in limited spaces. This system relies on igus motion plastics components for dependable cable guidance. The energy chains and cables from igus are essential for the system's functionality, ensuring that all components operate smoothly under harsh conditions.

igus's readychain and readycable systems are delivered ready for installation, significantly reducing assembly time. These components are tested for durability and come with a long service life guarantee. BINZ uses the E2i.21 and E2C.15 energy chains for their reliability and quiet operation. These chains ensure that the stretcher system functions efficiently, even in the confined spaces of an ambulance.

The Module Connect system from igus allows for the connection of various cables in a compact, space-saving design. This system simplifies the assembly process and enhances the reliability of the stretcher system. BINZ is satisfied with the ease of installation and the robust performance of igus components. The all-terrain ambulance, equipped with these advanced systems, will play a crucial role in disaster control, supporting rescue operations across Germany and Europe.
