The high-end data cables with TPE jacket are available from now on as unshielded (CF298) and shielded (CF299) versions with double the service life (up to 40 million guaranteed double strokes).
Dynamic applications with very small bend radii can quickly allow the copper cores of conventional cables to meet their mechanical stress limits. It is precisely for such scenarios that igus now guarantees 40 million double strokes on its CF298 (unshielded) and CF299 (shielded) data cable series with the smallest bending factor (4xd) for moving data cables in e-chains. This is made possible mainly by the combination of the new high-performance alloy conductor material and the highly flexible igus TPE outer jacket, which prevents cracks and breaks.
For extremely heavy duty and tough environments
This new generation of igus data cables is ideal for short, very quick movements, for example, in pick-and-place machines, automatic doors or other very fast handling applications. Due to the doubling of the service life guarantee to 40 million double strokes, these cables offer the user absolute planning safety and dependability, which can be of decisive importance especially for high-end applications.
Since the cables are certified according to ISO Class 1, they can also be used in the cleanroom, which in combination with the extreme service life represents an absolute competitive advantage. They are also suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications due to their resistance to UV, low temperature and oil.
Providing a guarantee to the end customer exceeds obligatory warranty claims or defect liability by far. chainflex customers thus not only receive the promise to purchase a defect-free product, but also reliable functionality over a certain period. Durability guarantee is what matters.
In current tests with the latest generation of chainflex data cables in the chainflex test laboratory a service life of over 54 million double strokes has been achieved:

Absolute air purity is essential in many industries, especially in production, in the medical and pharmaceutical technology, aerospace technology, nano technology and measurement technology. Any contamination in cleanroom conditions has a direct damaging impact on products and processes and costs a lot of money. In the case of cleanrooms, the requirements regarding the abrasion-resistance of moving components are especially high.
Offering around 4,600 harnessed motor, servo, signal and encoder cables in accordance with 24 manufacturer standards, igus is the world's No. 1 when it comes to harnessed cables for use in energy chains. Providing 7 different cable qualities, the range always offers the most cost-effective drive cable that is guaranteed to work.
Energy chains are mechanical machine elements. They are there to guide and protect energy, data and signals that have to withstand the most diverse environmental influences. The decisive factor here is the symbiosis of the components moving against each other.
