Chainflex cables

Purpose of every Chainflex ®cableMore sensitive applications with high clock cycle numbers,velocities and accelerations as well as sophisticated environmentalconditions call for, especially in the field of energymanagement, tried-and-tested systems that are functionallyefficient for a long period of time. EMC safety and the fulfillmentof standards and directives such as UL, CSA, VDE,Interbus and Profibus are a necessary requirement today.After all, your automation system is supposed to functioncorrectly non-stop and worldwide even on a low-cost basis.That’s the igus ® mission.No contradiction:Good cablescost less.Quick availability throughout the world is a significant purchasecriterion. Advantages of our cables: successful tests,presence in more than 40 countries around the world anddeliverability ex warehouse.

At the company-own technical training center inCologne, numerous series of tests are carried out on aparallel basis under the most difficult conditions. At thepresent time, there are more than 35 test setups withtheir test results being summarized in databases. Thisextensive, current data pool provides precise, reliableinformation on the actual service life and is also the basisof new product developments at the company. The testdata for Energy Chains ® and cables, but also for readymadesystems, are, however, described in such detailedform that igus ® confirms a functional guarantee for itsEnergy Chain Systems ® .23
