triflex® R cable retraction systems for multi-axis robots

triflex® R cable retraction systems guide the cable carrier to prevent loops in the robot’s work area. igus® offers a pneumatic retraction system with a continuously adjusting retraction force for the TRC, TRE and TRCF series; a space-saving modular retraction system for the TRC and TRE series; a linear retraction system for the TRC, TRE and TRCF series that’s made for welding, riveting and assembly robots; and a cost-effective retraction system for the TRC and TRE series that’s made for robots with small to medium load capacities.

Benefits:
  • Guides carriers to prevent loops in robot's path
  • Linear system for welding, riveting, nailing robots
  • Wheel system for small robots to prevent loops
  • Pneumatic system to avoid loops on robots' wrist
  • Compact, modular system for industrial robots

RSE Linear

triflex RSE linear

Retraction system for welding, riveting & nailing robots

  • Available in all sizes 40mm - 100mm, can be mounted on one system
  • Shorter cable lengths, because there is no deflection
  • Cost-effective, space-saving design
  • Less deflection points, greater process reliability for laser light cables and supply hoses

RSP

RSP

Pneumatic retraction system avoids loops on robot’s wrist

  • Larger carriers guided safely up to ø 125 mm
  • Adjustable, variable pull-back force made possible by a pressure control valve
  • Virtually constant power flow over the complete travel, even with heavy fillings.
  • Limit position can be monitored, therefore avoiding significant damage during failures.
  • Larger pull-back forces for RS system
