Clean SCARA Cable Solution works almost particle-free to ISO class 2 igus has launched a new energy supply system for SCARA robots in cleanrooms: the Clean SCARA Cable Solution consists of tribologically optimized high-performance plastics and works in almost particle-free conditions specified to ISO class 2 even in high-speed applications. The system is also highly […]
Test passes with flying colours: igus’ E6.29 energy chain receives innovative dry cleanroom certificate from research consultancy Fraunhofer IPA for ISO Class 4 Whenever the highest hygiene standards are required, igus scores well with lubrication-free and abrasion-resistant motion plastic components. A topical example is that battery production for electric vehicles requires special environmental conditions, which are […]
Cleanroom environments have vastly increased since Covid, which is hardly surprising. But ensuring that the products within that cleanroom work efficiently, whilst still maintaining the cleanroom standard can be tricky. In this week’s “video of the week”, a new addition to the clean room energy chain family is introduced. The C6 chain is ideal for […]
The modular system for high-speed applications allows individual cables to be replaced quickly and easily. The e-skin® flat simply sheds its skin to reveal the cable that needs replacing, replace and close. It is that simple. To see how simple the system really is, view this week’s video of the week https://youtu.be/AfL0Eln2z7U For more information […]
The award-winning, modular alternative to ribbon cable proves its particle-free qualities in Fraunhofer cleanroom test. In clean room environments such as laboratories, energy chains required to manage cables and hoses safely must be particle-free. igus has developed the e-skin flat, an economical alternative to ribbon cables due to its modular design. Proof that the energy […]
igus launches a new design of a particle-free and lightweight energy guide for clinical environments High abrasion resistance is crucial for machine elements in cleanrooms. In response, igus has developed the C6, an energy chain that is designed to meet the highest cleanroom class. The new chain is specially designed for longer unsupported applications on […]
Fraunhofer Purity Technology Award goes to the particle-free and compact “e-skin” flat cable guide Electronics manufacturing demands high purity manufacturing environments and requires particle-free machine elements in clean rooms to ensure product quality. The Fraunhofer Institute in Germany recognises innovative developments in clean manufacturing every two years with the REINER! Award. Motion plastics specialist igus […]
E2.1 e-chains for small and medium-sized applications reduce noise by 10dB and assembly time by 50%. Energy supply using polymer e-chains are virtually unlimited, whether the application is linear, vertical or rotational. And new polymer materials, improved designs and customer-specific requirements are continually expanding the product range, exemplified by the E2.1, the new e-chain standard […]
Plastics expert igus has developed the world’s first ‘e-skin flat’ single pod – designed specifically to guide cables in compact and particle-free cleanrooms. To ensure quick and easy installation customers can use the e-skin flat to select and combine chambers and then insert the cables in seconds. There is also the option of a new […]
17th July, 2020 The igus® e-skin® is a modular corrugated tube developed for use as a flat cable guidance system for cleanrooms. These energy chains supply cleanroom machines with data, media and energy. The zipper design is easy to open and close making cable installation simple. The e-skin® chain comes in 3 different types and various […]
