Servo motor feedback cables from chainflex®

chainflex® cables are industrial-grade continuous flex motion cables designed for dynamic applications such as robotics, automation, and machinery. They are tested for millions of cycles and engineered to prevent cable failure in demanding environments.

Standard cables often fail under constant motion, leading to downtime and costly replacements. chainflex® continuous flex cables are designed with special materials and optimized stranding to withstand up to 2 billion test cycles, ensuring long service life and reliable signal transmission.

igus® offers a full range of continuous flex motion cables including control, data, servo, motor, bus, hybrid, fiber-optic, coaxial, robotic torsion cables, and pre-assembled readycable® solutions.

chainflex® cables come with a UL-verified guarantee of up to 4-year service life. This guarantee is based on testing in the world’s largest cable test lab of its kind, where cables undergo up to 2 billion cycles annually.

chainflex® continuous flex cables meet global standards including UL, CE, EAC, NFPA 79, and cleanroom ISO Class 1. They also support major communication protocols such as PROFINET, PROFIBUS, EtherCAT, and CC-Link.

By using specialized designs for continuous flexing, chainflex® cables minimize insulation cracks, conductor breaks, and EMI issues. This means fewer cable failures, less machine downtime, and higher production efficiency.

igus® offers robot cables specifically designed for 3D torsional motion with up to ±360° rotation per meter, making them ideal for multi-axis robots and automated machinery.

The chainflex CASE system reduces packaging waste, improves cable handling, lowers shipping costs by up to 84%, and allows easy reordering—supporting cost savings and greener logistics.

Yes. Depending on the cable type, they are available with oil-resistant, UV-stable, flame-retardant, and halogen-free materials, making them suitable for harsh industrial environments.

igus® provides free online tools including a service life calculator and cable configurator. These help you select the right cable and predict its performance in your specific application.

Yes. Engineers and purchasing managers can request a free cable sample box to evaluate product performance before committing to larger orders.

Hybrid cables combine servo power and feedback lines into a single continuous flex cable, reducing space, simplifying routing, and lowering installation costs—perfect for modern servo drive systems.

Yes. With the igus® readycable® service, continuous flex cables can be ordered pre-harnessed with connectors from brands like Siemens, Beckhoff, Allen Bradley, and SEW, ready for plug-and-play installation.

igus® offers more than 1,394 continuous flex cable types, available with no minimum order quantity. You can order by the foot (or meter), and most ship within 24 hours.
