manus® award 2025

12th competition for plastic bearing applications

Participate now and win €5,000!

Have you rethought your approach to plain bearings? Have you replaced lubricated metal bearings with lubrication-free plastic bearings, linear plain bearings or spherical bearings? Excellent! This sustainability transformation is your ticket to the manus award.

The competition is one of a kind across the globe and has been awarding prizes for creative applications of polymer plain bearings since 2003. We offer you a platform for your project and worldwide attention. In addition, we will award prize money of up to €5,000.

manus winners' applications

What are we looking for?

We talk to engineers every day and often hear that the pressure is constantly increasing. It's not just about cost efficiency, but also about continuously improving the CO₂ balance of products, for example, by dispensing with lubricants. In a recent study with RWTH Aachen, we were able to prove for the first time how plastic bearings tackle both challenges successfully.

 

That is why, as part of the 12th manus award, we are especially interested in finding out how the use of these bearings affects your company.

  • What technical problems were you able to solve by using plastic bearings?
  • How did polymer bearings improve the sustainability of your application?
  • What effects will the change have on costs?

2023 manus award winners


Gold manus 2023

To deliver liquid nitrogen fertiliser to the field, US-based J&M Manufacturing develops what it calls a para-linkage coulter. To keep the coulter maintenance-free and, even more importantly, to prevent lubricants from getting into the soil, J&M Manufacturing uses iglidur plain bearings.

Silver manus 2023

People who work with high-pressure cleaners in industry know the problem: the devices are often so heavy that back pain is inevitable. Aufratech provides relief. The French company has developed EXO N, an exoskeleton for high-pressure cleaning tool users. The device uses iglidur plain bearings and drylin linear technology.

Bronze manus 2023

Fiedler Maschinenbau und Technikvertrieb GmbH makes high-pressure cleaners for municipal vehicles that clean dirty streets, walkways and squares. It uses side nozzles, a middle section and electronically switchable high-pressure underfloor nozzles with high water pressure. What makes it special is that the high-pressure cleaner's working area can be changed at the touch of a button. To achieve this, Fiedler uses drylin linear technology.
