Energy chain
Complete sets of the heavy duty series 4040RHDB have now been standardised to a few clicks with the help of years of experience. From now on, the complete sets of the 4040RHDB for travels between 25 and 200 metres can be ordered online with just three clicks. Complex engineering not always necessary Roller energy chains […]
A gantry design is frequently found in machine tools in particular. In addition to large machining centres, particularly in sheet metal working machines such as laser or plasma cutting systems. In the last few weeks, there have been several requests that the energy supply system should not have any influence on the overall width of […]
Many manufacturers design their products in such a way that they give up the ghost early. Planned obsolescence is the name of this trickery. Why igus is pursuing a different strategy. Quickly print out the spaghetti recipe for the culinary evening with friends. But then the cry to the heavens: the printer no longer […]
The harsh environment of electroplating plants makes cables and energy supply systems a challenge. The answer from igus: energy chains and guide troughs made of the chemical-resistant, high-performance polymer igumid EG+ and tough chainflex cables. The rim of a sports car flashes in the sun. No wonder, it is covered with chrome plating. The door […]
Energy chains in the work area What used to be normal (energy chains in the working area) is now largely avoided. However, some applications cannot be implemented otherwise. Hot or sharp-edged swarf can quickly impair the function of an energy supply system. Regardless of whether the swarf damages the cables or swarf clusters minimise the […]
