Our customers demand that their machines and equipment must run. Non-stop. Worldwide. Malfunctions, such as cable failure in moving applications, must not occur and cause expensive downtime, even and especially when installed under the most adverse environmental
conditions.
Chainflex® cables are developed and optimized solely for the special requirements of continuously flexing applications.
Thorough testing in the igus® test laboratories (on more than 40 different continuously moving test rigs)
More than 850 different sizes of igus® Chainflex® cables are available from stock, including motor, servo, data, bus, control, and fiber-optic cables
Resistant to dirt, seawater, chemicals, extreme temperatures
CE, UL, CSA compliant
Mud resistant according to NEC606 for offshore cables
The design methods that make our continuous-flex cables unique.
Find the right Chainflex® continuous-flex cable for your application fast.
Reduce storage costs for cable carriers, cables and connectors to zero
Our quick and guaranteed delivery times mean you don't have to store cable carriers, cables, or connectors 'just in case'.
Cut throughput time in half
Optimized logistics mean igus® can deliver ready-made systems almost worldwide within 2-8 days on a guaranteed date.
React flexibly to order fluctuations
With ReadyChains® you can always be prepared for cyclical ups and downs.
Minimize machine downtime
Play it safe: small things cause big problems. Buying numerous components individually not only increases the risk of failure at your plant, but it also complicates troubleshooting.
Get a system solution with ReadyChain®. Any system is checked in our test center. igus® is standardized according to ISO 9001:2008.
Reduce the number of suppliers and orders by 75%
One order, one invoice, one delivery, one partner. Don’t worry about looking for numerous parts from different suppliers. We have the knowledge to provide the optimal parts to you quickly.
Complete cable carrier systems - ready to be connected to your machines - can be pre-harnessed and delivered in 3 to 8 days.
