Machine and plant manufacturers can reduce production costs, improve efficiency and reduce potential sources of error from the start of the product life cycle by using readychains from igus, the Germany-based manufacturer of motion plastics. Readychain systems provide an economical and swift solution and are being used in thousands of applications around the globe. igus, […]
Mounting clamps ensure safety and easy energy chain assembly
igus has developed new plastic mounting clamps for energy chains on cobots that are easy to assemble and minimize risk, ensuring a safe interaction between humans and machines. Users of cobots and industrial robots are already using igus’ three-dimensional and round triflex R e-chains for energy and data supply. The plastic clamps can be quickly […]
Compact energy supply system guides date, energy in tight spaces
igus has introduced a compact energy supply system, consisting of an energy chain, flexible chainflex cables for tight bend radii, and an aluminum guide control, that allows users to guide data, media, fluids and air in the tightest of spaces at high speeds. The system, called micro flizz, can be used with igus’ new smart […]
High-performance cable polymer ensures safe, failure-free operation of VFD servodrives
To address the latest developments in frequency-controlled motors, the so-called VFDs (variable-frequency drives), show a clear trend: more compact design with the same or higher power with extremely high switching accuracy of the frequency converters. As a result, in the future the user not only has to pay attention to the right number of conductors […]
Reliable in wind, waves, and weather: DNV GL certified cables for e-chains
Energy chains used in the maritime industry have special requirements for safe energy and data transmission, and igus, Providence, R.I., is the only manufacturer to develop, test and certify cables in accordance with DNV GL for use in that particular field. Customers for gas production facilities, oil rigs, wind farms, port facilities and ship cranes […]
New website from igus connects users with right cables
A new website published by igus for SPS IPC Drives provides information on current trends in drive technology and gives a comprehensive overview of the diverse cable section. The new website, at igus.com/info/flex-cable, provides a gateway to the world of igus cables. Customers have a wide range of choices, from cables sold by the meter to […]
E2.1 energy chain reduces noise emissions, cuts assembly time by 50%
A new energy chain from igus in small and medium sizes is quieter, stronger and dramatically reduces assembly time. The new E2.1 series chain saves users 50% on installation time, and adapts to the requirements of the machine. The chain offers long service life and silent operation, and in the future, users will be able […]
Free cable management dresspack configurator simplifies selection
igus has developed a new robot dresspack configurator, a free online tool that can be used to find the ideal cable management system for virtually every robot available on the market. Energy supply systems, which are capable of high-performance, three-dimensional movements reliably protect cables and hoses during the highly dynamic motions of industrial robots. Many […]
Hybrid cable delivers power and feedback functions through a single cable
igus has introduced a flexible cable for use in energy chains that delivers motor power and feedback functions through a single cable. The new CF280.UL.H cable is a hybrid servo cable offered as an expansion to the chainflex line of cables for moving applications. The cable includes a 36-month service life guarantee. Cable can be […]
Snow and ice are no match for injection-molded igus ice e-chain
igus has introduced e-chain and chainflex cables that are an ideal solution for applications that must work reliably in frost and snow. The new e-chain, called “ice-chain,” features injection-molded contact points that dramatically reduce the chance of freezing, along with the costs of downtime and maintenance. The e-chains prevent freezing of the energy supply. Inclined […]
