One of the top producers of flexible cables, igus® is designed to function in combination with plug-in connections to enable direct connection to electric motors and drives. Consumers can choose between readycable® pre-assembled cables with industrial connections constructed in accordance with more than 20 manufacturer requirements or chainflex® bulk cable that can be linked to their current motor drives.
Cables that use electrical energy from the grid or from a battery that is transformed into mechanical energy must move with the help of electric drive cables. Machine tools, automation, robotics, and moving material handling equipment are just a few of the industries that use motor drive cables, which are essentially the means of transporting electrical energy in cable carriers.
For drive technology applications, servo power, servo motor feedback, and hybrid cables are the most widely utilized cable kinds. For motors that run on a VFD or even a converter, we at igus motion solutions, have optimized our servo cables. Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) are high-frequency-controlled motors and drives that are technically delicate and demanding. To send indications from servo motor position sensors to their control systems in industrial facilities and machinery, servo motor feedback cables are necessary.
Finally, servo and motor feedback cables for drive technology are combined to create hybrid cables. Usually found in servo drive systems, they provide energy to the servo drive and relay crucial data back to the control system.
Based in Cologne, Germany, Igus is a maker of motion-related high-performance polymers. Since 1964, we have been creating and manufacturing what are known as "motion plastics," which are cutting-edge goods composed of lubrication-free polymers. These include energy chains, cables, lead screw technology, plain bearings, robotics, and intelligent sensors that assist our clients in cutting expenses and improving their technology. The firm name, igus Industriespritzguss (industrial injection moulding), comes from the fact that the majority of items are made utilizing this technique.
The majority of people have mentioned this type of cable while discussing control cables. One type of cable utilized for signal transmission, automatic control, and operation is the control cable and are low-maintenance cables. The primary material is polyvinyl chloride, which can be utilized in control and protection circuits with rated voltages lower than 450/750V and has good insulating performance. It is typically utilized more in the transportation, energy, and mining industries.
Insulation performance: The industrial control cable's primary material is polyvinyl chloride, which cannot be broken down by a voltage of 1 min and 1 kv between the conductors. It cannot be broken down by a 5mim 3kv voltage between the conductor and the shield.Capacitance: When the control cable is operating, its average capacitance can be as high as 52f/km. Defense: The average total power exceeds 69DB/KM when operating at 150KHZ.
Energy chains are mechanical machine components that are also known as energy supply chains, e-chains, or cable drag chains.They are employed to supply and safeguard signals, data, and energy that must endure the widest range of environmental impacts. The symbiosis of the components moving against one another is the key factor in cable guides. They consist of guiding troughs, strain relief devices, wires, hoses, and internal separation components.
To obtain maximum running durations and a long service life, the materials utilized must be optimally matched to one another. Wherever energy is delivered to moving customers in the form of gas, electricity, air, or fluids, downtime is prevented because of energy chains.
