igus servo cables with control pair shield

Click2Contact

igus has announced a separate control pair shield for the chainflex servo cables of the CF 21, 27 and 29 series. This ensures maximum electromagnetic compatibility of the control pair and a faster shielding of the cable. This enables the user to save up to 30% of the processing time for the pair shield and thus also installation costs.

If a converter and drive need to be connected, servo cables are used. For their assembly, the user must first strip the cable. The CFRIP thread helps to do this – the tear-proof ripcord in the cable jacket makes the pulling easy, like a zipper, providing up to 50% faster cable stripping. The covered shielding increases the electromagnetic compatibility of the control pair and simplifies the connection of the pair shield. This allows users to save up to 30% on the installation of the pair shields and therefore reduce costs.

The UL-approved igus servo cables of the CF21 series are available with a highly flexible, oil-resistant PVC jacket for high stressing capacity and the smallest bend radii in the energy chain of down to 7.5 diameters. The CF27 cable series with an oil-resistant PUR outer jacket is flame retardant and has EAC and CTP certification, while the CF29 cable with a TPE outer jacket is suitable for applications with a bend radius of down to 6.8 diameters, even at extreme temperatures of -35 to +100°C.
