7th axis e-chain cables for Fanuc robots

Click2Contact

To use industrial robots efficiently in large production plants, they often need to move in a straight line on a seventh axis. It is important to ensure safe energy supply along the axis from the switch cabinet to the robot. For this purpose, igus has now further expanded its range of e-chain cables for robots with two PUR hybrid cables — CFSPECIAL.792.015 and CFSPECIAL.792.016. The cables are highly flexible and designed for use on Fanuc robots.

The specially designed cables have been developed and tested for highly dynamic applications in production plants with long travels. On long distances along the seventh linear axis, it is especially important for the cables to avoid failures due to corkscrewing. The PUR hybrid cables CFSPECIAL.792.015 and CFSPECIAL.792.016 meet the electrical and technical requirements of Fanuc robots.

These two chainflex special cables are shielded and have an abrasion-resistant PUR outer jacket. The cables are impact-resistant, flame-retardant and halogen-free. The cables are also resistant to oil and coolant, as well as to hydrolysis and microbes.
