Interconnect motor cables for continuous-flex applications

December 14, 2009

Cable carrier manufacturer igus has developed a line of continuous-flex, interconnect motor cables harnessed in accordance with leading manufacturers, including Siemens, Indramat, Fanuc, and Allen Bradley.

As with all Chainflex cables, these interconnects are ideal for continuous-flexing applications in an Energy Chain cable carrier. The cables are available for drive, control, motor and robotic functions. They come equipped with different cable connectors, including those with flying leads, adapter plugs and extensions.

The entire igus line of Chainflex cables can handle tight bending radii in dynamic applications and are tested over millions of cycles in all types of conditions to ensure performance.
