The motion plastics specialist has added two
new versions of the cable reel for energy chains to its range with maximum
extension lengths from 2 to 25 metres. From stage to marine applications – the
e-spool mini and e-spool power can be routed in all directions in varied
application areas. Energy, media or fibre optic data cables can be guided
together in one system, with continuous end-to-end connection as the
space-saving e-spool from igus does not require a slip ring.
In place
of the classic cable reel, igus offers the e-spool which carries energy, data
and media, all guided together. The rotary motion required to roll and unroll
the energy chain is allowed by the twisterband from igus. By using this, no
slip rings are required.
For short extension lengths: e-spool mini
An
innovation this year is the e-spool mini for extremely small installation
spaces and a maximum extension length of up to 2 metres. An extension and
retraction speed of 1 m/s is possible for this very light version, which has an
aluminium structure. The chainflex cables from igus, specially developed for
use in energy chains, offer the perfect transmission of data, media and energy
and ensure a long service life.

e-spool power defies extreme conditions
The e-spool portfolio is also
extended in the other direction too. The e-spool power was developed for
extension lengths up to 25 metres. Project planning is currently underwayn for
customers needing even larger versions and extension lengths up to 50 metres
are possible. In contrast to the other e-spool options that use a return
spring, a motor is used here, which allows a much longer service life. The
e-spool power is supplied by igus along with motor and control unit, and is
suitable for outdoor use below 0°C. The rugged plastic components are also
corrosion free and withstandeven the harshest conditions at sea. igus has 362
different cables with the DNV-GL offshore approval required for such
applications, which makes it easier for you to get the ideal chainflex cables for
your application.
