Aerial lifts, telescopic boom platforms and cherry pickers offer very little space for the safe travel of energy, which is why so many engineers turn to e-chain® cable carriers made of high-performance plastics, or a plastic-steel hybrid, from igus to protect their moving cables and hoses.
igus spare parts for guidance, transmission and bearing systems in telescopic lifting work platforms such as energy chains or drag chains, cables and supply lines as well as plastic plain bearings, linear bearings or sliding plates meet the harsh conditions of outdoor and permanently stressed devices.
As energy chains can do without screws, there are no loose or lost parts due to vibrations. No rusting and jamming, because of plastic. Openable at any point you like and assemble in minutes. Cables with high UV resistance, designed for continuous dynamic use in energy chains with a guarantee of 36 months. No greasing and regreasing of bearing points, because igus® plain and linear bearings as well as sliding plates are completely maintenance-free and self-lubricating.
Energy, data, media cables and hoses must be securely guided in telescopic work platforms. E-chain® cable carriers from igus provide a special cable protection not only against external influences, but also against wear, which occurs during the cyclically recurring retraction and extension of the telescopic arms with different lifting speeds.
e-chains® of the E4.1L series combine ease of installation, toughness and low weight in one family. Available in many sizes with many accessories from stock.
e-chains® of the E2.1 series are particularly suitable for very tight installation spaces and short unsupported lengths. Easy to assemble and openable where you like.
Safe and reliable guidance for two hydraulic hoses with igus E2 e-chains® with extender crossbars. The special solution for truck-mounted work platforms.

The chainflex cables withstand the highest bending stresses and make the smallest bend radii up to 4xd cable diameters possible. All chainflex cables carry a guarantee for 36 months.
For flexing applications with influence of oil. For indoor and outdoor applications without direct solar radiation. Especially for unsupported travels up to 10m.
For heavy-duty use and almost complete resistance to oil. Indoor and outdoor applications with average UV radiation. Unsupported travels up to 100m.
For medium load and almost complete resistance to oil. Indoor and outdoor applications without direct sun radiation. Unsupported travels up to 20m.
Demands on lubrication and maintenance add up to high costs. Thanks to igus self-lubricating plastic plain bearings, sliding plates in telescopic work platforms can be designed to work without lubrication and maintenance. In addition, they are often more cost-effective and durable than metallic solutions.
Plastic sliding plates are specially designed for dynamic applications and require no additional lubricant and are maintenance-free.
Inside the booms of the cherry pickers, completely harnessed energy chain systems from igus ensure safe guidance of the control cable and hydraulic hoses. These are 100 percent tested beforehand at igus.
This work platform is usually used in underground mining. Hitherto, hoses and cables were hanging loose and could easily get caught and be damaged.
This vehicle was specially designed for the transport of wind turbine blades.
A versatile utility vehicle used in underground mining, which is needed for maintenance work in various areas.
These drilling and pile-driving machines are used, for example, in railway construction to set the concrete piles for the electrical lines.
This redesign allows the execution of several different steps in tunnelling with one device.
