igus e-skin flat series cleanroom-compatible energy chains

Friday, 17 February, 2023 | Supplied by: Treotham Automation Pty Ltd


Cleanroom-compatible energy chains from the igus e-skin flat series are designed to qualify for the highest cleanroom class even after 1.5 years of continuous use and 60 million double strokes. The results have been confirmed by a test in a cleanroom laboratory set up by motion plastics specialist igus in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation (IPA).

The flat cable guidance system is made of abrasion-optimised high-performance plastic that can ensure particle-free guidance of power and data cables in moving production systems and is thus suitable for ISO Class 1.

Suitable for robots and other automation systems, the system features not only extreme abrasion resistance but also a modular design. Modules can be replaced, if needed, and the module connection also allows individual profiles to be interlinked.

In combination with the chainflex CFCLEAN stranded structure, the complete system has a globally recognised certification from the US Underwriters Laboratories (UL) organisation.

The cable guidance system is claimed to be 9 dB(A) quieter and cost 20% less than standard ribbon cables.
