Saving on purchasing, maintenance and assembly. It's our job.
The cheapest energy chain that works for you is simply the best. Enquire about your savings potential.
A product is only as good as its customer rating.
With igus® energy chain system, you save on maintenance, assembly and often also directly on purchasing, with a 36-month warranty on e-chain® and chainflex® cable. Our free online tools also reduce your process costs.
◉ Free white paper
Understanding customer needs avoids over-engineering.
Ever better functionalities, more standards, modularity and a low total cost of ownership at a fair price: this is a short and concise summary of what companies in all industries expect from their machine and plant manufacturers and, in turn, what they expect from their part and component suppliers. The free white paper deals with the topic of over-engineering and looks at igus® solutions that can help to avoid over-engineering (or even utilise it in a targeted manner).
▼Reduce costs
e-chain® with the same inner height and similar stability. Save on purchasing.
If the application does not necessarily require it, it may be possible to use a cheaper chain with lower load data, with similar or even the same inner and outer dimensions and equally simple functionality. This is made possible by the variety of over 200,000 e-chain® parts in the igus® programme.
▼Reduce costs
More stability, the same dimensions and a 30% price saving.
The E2.1 family is the successor to the proven E2/000 e-chain® family. All E2/000 e-chain® can be opened in the inner or outer radius. There are applications where opening and closing the chain is not necessary and money can now be saved. The E2.1 family is available with inner and outer radius opening, and also as a non-opening version. A lot of money can be saved quickly with the same dimensions.
▼Reduce costs
Save 40 % in price with almost identical e-chain® dimensions.
The E4.1 system is the robust and largest e-chain® family in the igus® programme. It impresses with numerous design tricks that are primarily focussed on high stability and modularity. The E4.1L (L=lean) family adopts many of these tricks, but the series is designed to be easier to assemble, lighter and more attractively priced.
▼Reduce costs
Save up to 50 % in price with cost-effective robot components.
Various Robotics clamps from igus® can be used to securely fasten the energy chain or the protective conduit to the robot. A lot of money can be saved quickly with simple solid plastic holders.
▼Reduce costs
Save 58% on costs by using an acid-resistant plastic channel instead of stainless steel
Guide systems made of metal harbour the familiar problems: corrosion, complex installation, high weight and high costs. The material of the Guidelite-plus-EG guide trough ensures high chemical resistance, making it ideal for use in electroplating and fertiliser production. Due to its light weight and modular design, installation is significantly simplified.
▼Reduce costs
Save 64.7 % on control cable by dispensing with PUR and the CF130.UL.D
With the chainflex® price check, you can quickly find the right cable for your needs. Each electrical specification is available in 7 cable qualities. You have the choice: favourable price or the cable for high technical requirements. Thanks to this wide range of cables, we can offer you great cost savings for every type of cable; for example, a price advantage of 64.7 % for control cable with the favourable CF130.UL.D instead of the typical PURcable (CF77.UL.D).
▼Reduce costs
Ready-to-install savings: reduce storage costs for cable, e-chain® and connector to zero
Thanks to our just-in-time delivery, there is no need to store highly flexible cables, the corresponding connectors and any other attachments. igus® supplies pre-assembled readychain® systems that are customised for each application and can be installed on site in a final step.
With readychain® you receive a system solution in which all the components used are harmonised with each other. Each system is tested on our test stands before delivery.
▼Reduce costs
With readychain®, the number of suppliers and orders is reduced by 75%
With us, you can order entire systems with just one order number and also save valuable assembly time.
One order, one invoice, one delivery, one partner. Instead of procuring a large number of individual parts from different suppliers, we provide you with everything from a single source. We take over the procurement of the optimum individual parts for you at favourable prices and accompany your project from A to Z.
▼Reduce costs
Saving thanks to solutions for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance
Intelligent maintenance in the age of Industry 4.0: smart plastic from igus® can increase the reliability of machines, plan maintenance work precisely and thus save costs.
▼Reduce costs
Save drive power - reduce energy costs
Energy chain systems not only transport energy, data and media to machines and systems. They also influence their energy costs. How much push-pull force, i.e. drive power, is required to move an energy chain at a given speed? Smaller and lighter energy chains with identical stability or roller energy chains can help here.
▼Reduce costs
Machine downtime - wasted money
Machines must function safely and without malfunctions. This requires a reliable energy chain system and cable. igus® assembly services avoid machine downtimes.
How do I configure the most favourable energy chain that works safely?
With our online configurators, you can configure the perfect and most favourable energy chain that is sure to work in just a few steps. Calculation of the expected service life of the energy chain and the chainflex® cable.
Applications of our customers:
Yes, plastic-energy chains are recyclable
Have your drag or energy chain,
from any manufacturer, in the igus® Chainge® recycling programme,
so that the reusable granulate can be recovered.
