Aerial Camera Systems (ACS), a supplier of specialist camera technologies to the film and television sectors, uses a range of Igus products, including dry-running linear and rotary bearings, in its tracking camera systems. ACS develops cameras for systems operating from helicopters and from tethered helium balloons, for example. Its rail camera systems, which comprise track-mounted cameras that can be moved at high speed and with high precision, can be ground based or flown and have been used in films including Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows as well as in TV shows such as The X Factor and Dancing on Ice. The systems have to be capable of moving the cameras at high speed over long distances, while operating silently and without vibration. For this reason, ACS uses Igus bearings made from high-performance polymer materials. In addition, the company utilises energy chain systems from Igus, also made from polymer materials. Key benefits of product application *The Igus bearings are resistant to the effects of moisture and contamination, which is important when the ACS camera rigs are used on location. *The bearings require no lubrication or other maintenance, they have a wide operating temperature range and, even when loaded to their full design rating, they have a long working life. *They offer smooth running, even in the presence of contaminants, and they are virtually silent in operation. *The Igus energy chains can be easily opened and closed so that cables can be added or swapped as required.
