Application examples of igus® energy chains
igus® energy chain systems can be used in a large number of different applications, so much so that the industries using our e-chains® are hugely varied across the UK.
Our e-chains® are used in an automated line for handling medicine: our e-chains® perform 20,000 movements each day in this application without failure. The economy and technical benefits from our e-chains® secured the system in this company’s picking system. Find out more about it here.
You can also find igus® energy chains in the automotive industry where the building of car engines requires a high degree of automation and sensor technology for monitoring wear during operation. High dynamics and fast run times are maintained thanks to our e-chains® supporting the production robots in this factory. Find out more about it here.
Thirdly, our energy chain systems are used in coal power stations worldwide. a power plant in the Czech Republic boasts our longest e-chain® yet; with 615m of travel it is the longest energy chain in the world yet, and 10 years on is still producing 100% reliability for our customer. Find out more about the power station application here.
At igus®, we love new and interesting applications so let us help you with our electrical, mechanical and production designs to optimise the energy supply and outgoing processes at your site.
