Energy chain news
Permanent innovations - energy supply of the future
We at igus specialise in wear-resistant, lubrication-free and low-maintenance components made of high-performance plastics for moving applications of all kinds. Every year, we introduce a large number of new innovations that ensure the considerable, steady growth and sustainable corporate success of igus GmbH. The focus of these many new products and product range additions is particularly on specific applications that we can improve technically and/or solve more cost-effectively, true to our slogan "Tech up, Cost down". In addition to concrete, tested new products, we also regularly present design studies, i.e. ideas that have been moulded into initial drafts in order to sound out market potential. Here, too, there is usually already a specific challenge/application in the background.

Accessories for the E2.1
Modular, flexible, simple and cost-effectiveNew mounting brackets for the E2.26 and E2.38, damper clip for the E2i.48, new crossbars E2.26F and E2.38F.
Accessories for the E2.1
Magsnap for E2i.15
Space-saving guidance without a troughFor vertical hanging applications where a guide trough is not possible for space reasons. Magnets hold the e-chain in the specified direction and "fix" it to the metal wall.

Cleanroom solutions |
Energy chain series C6
The series offering the highest cleanroom requirements is now available in three inner heights: 29, 38 and 53mm. Optimised with the crossbars-every-link design in the outer radius and as standard with crossbars plus interior separation made of iglidur J.To the C6 energy chain series
e-skin soft SKS28
More space for small roomsThe series for the highest cleanroom requirements, now available in three inner heights: 29, 38 and 53mm. Optimised with the crossbars-every-link design in the outer radius and as standard with crossbars plus interior separation made of iglidur J.
To the e-skin soft SKS28
e-skin flat
Maximum modularity | in six sizesBy combining different single pod sizes, the e-skin flat allows you to utilise the smallest installation spaces effectively. Three additional variants for further flexibility: size SKF10 in openable and closed versions, plus the SKF15 now in openable version.
Go to e-skin flat
e-skin flat layer holder
Straight run guaranteedThe layer holder guides several layers of the e-skin flat straight in the track, even with very long unsupported lengths. The e-skin flat layers thus remain on top of each other and can utilise the unsupported specifications of the e-skin® flat with support chains, even if these are not installed in every layer.
To the e-skin flat layer holder
Mounting bracket for e-skin flat single pods
Securely fasten individual podsSingle pods of the e-skin flat system can now also be easily attached and strain-relieved. This means that individual cables can be guided separately from each other in a pod after the movement, or single pods can be used to organise a string of cables for the smallest movements.
To the mounting bracket
e-skin soft ESD
ESD protection for cleanroom ISO 1Proven e-skin soft now made of dissipative material. This prevents the formation of electrostatic fields and the abrupt discharge caused by the movement of the black e-skin soft due to the material. The e-skin soft ESD is suitable for the highest cleanroom class, with a small installation space.
To the e-skin soft ESD
e-skin ring interior separation SK24.3.H.5
Minimise cable abrasionThe ring interior separation enables clean distribution of the cables and hoses with minimal abrasion, as it is made of the tribo-optimised plastic iglidur J. This has proven itself in numerous tests and applications as the best glide surface for any cable jacket or hose material.
To the e-skin ring interior separation
Reinforced mounting bracket for the e-skin soft 20
Connect more flexiblyLarger, reinforced mounting bracket as an extension of the accessory options for the smallest e-skin soft. Can be integrated very flexibly thanks to the additional bushings in front of the head.
