e-tract cable retraction system
E-mobility made easy. For a tidy charging station.
e-tract is a solution for automatically rewinding a cable. This prevents hazards and cable damage due to improper winding or obstructing cables. The e-tract is used in applications where a mobile terminal device is connected to a cable that was previously rolled up by hand. Multiple deflection means that long extension lengths can be achieved in limited installation space. The slip ring is eliminated completely.
Typical application areas:
Control panels, tools on assembly lines and worktables, and charging stations.
NEW: e-tract 2.1 Much slimmer and more compact
The next step in the evolution of the e-tract, the solution for automatic cable retraction – ideal for electric car charging stations. The new version is now even slimmer and more compact and offers a better ratio of extension to total cable length in the system. A wall box (11kW) is integrated into the system.
Tech up
- Slimmer/more compact design
- Full charging power, even when the cable is rolled up
- Integrated linear snap mechanism
- Cable extension at a height of about 1.2 metres
Cost down
- Less cable length required for the same extension length
Proof
- Mechanically tested in climate chambers with temperatures down to -25°C, and electrically tested with integrated charging electronics
Sustainability
- Use of recycled or recyclable raw materials
- Supports e-mobility
- Have your energy chain recycled at the end of its life cycle with the igus. No matter what manufacturer. You will receive a voucher.
Description of the e-tract 2.1 interior

- Roller cage
- Pulley system
- Locking mechanism
- Rotating base
Technical improvements in the e-tract 2.1
Less space required thanks its innovative design. The new roller cages make the e-tract 2.1 approx. 25% smaller than its predecessor.
- Reduces the required cable length and installation space while maintaining extension length
- Openable crossbars prevent the cable from coming off or tangling and allow the charging cable to be installed and replaced quickly and easily
- Integrated wallbox (11kW)
Tech up
- Neatly rolled up cable
- Visually tidier
- Protected from wind and weather
- Can be combined with all commercially available wallbox systems
- Cable-friendly plastic rollers
- Defined bend radius protects the cables
Cost down
- Protection against cable theft (when retracted)
- Longer service life thanks to protection from weathering
Proof
- Test setup in the igus laboratory
Sustainability
- Use of recycled or recyclable raw materials
- Supports e-mobility
