PRM rotating energy supply

Complete system with polymer guide trough, 360° rotation angle

The PRM rotating energy supply system is a polymer trough, e.g. for small measuring and handling machines.  The guide is also suitable for camera applications. It does not require any sliding contacts and is protected against corrosion.

  • No slip ring, all media in a single system
  • Complete system can be ordered with only one number; it includes an e-chain and separated guide trough  and integrated strain relief
  • Weight saving -85% vs. steel guide trough
  • Various inner widths with a single guide trough
  • Improved guidance, minimised displacement forces
  • Protected against corrosion
  • 85% less weight than a comparable steel component -> 0.175kg compared with 1.50kg
  • Costs 60% less: possible sale price for plastic guide trough: €597 vs. steel : €1,602 (one-to-one comparison)
  • Costs 60% less than a comparable steel guide trough
  • No project planning costs
  • No minimum purchases – low system price, no minimum order
  • Can be delivered pre-assembled - reducing on-site installation costs
  • Simplified guide trough manufacturing process. Production at only one location
  • No need for sheet metal cutting, rolling, welding or galvanising/passivating.
  • Can be produced from recycled material
  • Have your energy chains processed as part of the igus undefined no matter which manufacturer they came from
  • igus supports the circular economy of plastics and is investing in undefined

Tests

Weight test for the 200P rotating energy supply

Weight saving

The polymer 200P rotating energy supply weighs substantially less than a comparable steel guide trough. Using the 200P reduces weight by 85%
