The Igus chainflex cables from igus are designed with one message in mind, “cost down, life up”. With our TPE jacket material, we provide products that can cope with highly demanding applications adopting very high abrasion resistance whilst providing excellent protection levels when faced with harsh chemical and oil-based environments. Our patented bundle design ensures small bend radius figures which make chainflex cables ideal for use in echain (cable carrier), flexible and fixed applications.
Small bend radii, ideal for space saving installation Patented core bundled design to ensure long lasting lifetime in dynamic applications Oil resistant Class 4 which supports almost unlimited oil + bio-oil resistance Low angled braided screen optimised for use in continuous flexing applications 300/500v rated for use in control cable applications Wide temperature ranges from -55°c to +100°c depending on application type Guaranteed service life for use in echains, minimise risk of unplanned downtime Long travel rated for reliable use up to 400m in echains®
Bus cables are used to ensure the safe and reliable data transmission between to electrical devices that support the dedicated Bus protocol (Ethernet, CAN-bus, Profibus/Profinet etc). Core configurations vary and are designed to conform to each Bus protocol including materials, sizing, colour coding and electrical properties and has guaranteed electrical and mechanical performance when used in accordance with the associated “Guaranteed service life” table. CFBUS.PUR is designed for heavy duty applications supported by its almost unlimited resistance to oil. Ideal for use on indoor and outdoor applications, supported by a working temperature range from -50°C to up +80°C. Typical application areas include
Machining units/machine tools, automatic doors, very quick handling, low temperature applications.
