Since the e-chain is dependent on fill weight, we distinguish between three stages of unsupported length: 01) Unsupported length – straight FLG The e-chain is in the range FLG if its upper run is either still pretensioned, straight or has a maximum sag of half a chain link height. Installing in FLG is always recommended. […]
Yes, igus offers different e-chains, which can also be used in a cleanroom. Extensive tests were carried out with the energy chains for this purpose at the Fraunhofer Institute. A selection of qualified e-chains can be found here. ISO Class 1: E3, E6.1, E6, e-skin ISO Class 2: easychain, zipper, E2 mini*, E2.1*, E2/000 E4.1*, […]
All products used in cleanrooms need to fulfil the same requirement: During operation, as few particles as possible should be released into the surrounding area. This is especially applicable for moving machine parts such as energy chains and cables. To generate as few particles as possible requires high abrasion resistance, and is therefore also an […]
