e-chain® in the clean room

The already low abrasion of the igus® e-chain® is yet again significantly reduced by the application of a special material. An e-chain® can also be used hereby in many applications that presented intricate special solutions so far. An extensive test program has been completed for both gliding and unsupported applications. For many applications, the e-chain® made of special material can be operated practically free of abrasion. The IPA tests confirm that the standard e-chain® from igus® is sufficient for clean room requirements. "proven and tested excellent!" The moving parts in clean rooms require a very high wear resistance. Thus for instance, an e-chain® must be extremely wear resistant in order to fulfill the standard requirements of this sensitive environment.

Energy chains in machines for micro-assembly of electrical components

Häcker Automation GmbH manufactures micro-assembly machines and uses our e-chains and cables for 20 million movement cycles a day.

Clean room technology

The number of freely hanging cables should be bundled together. The specific movements executed by the robot stress the energy cables to a high degree.

Clean room technology

No wear in the igus® energy supply system even in endurance tests. In a travel of 290 mm, a number of 50-60 cycles per hour is attained mostly in the three-shift operation.

Handling system

Robotic handling system for circuit boards. Flexible energy supply system in use in clean room technology.

Wafer handling

One igus® e-chain® of the E6 family accelerates the work sequences in the case of this application for wafer handling in the chip production industry.

Blister machine / Packaging technology

drylin® W for positioning of films in a blister machine.

Energy chains and chainflex® cables in cleanrooms

Hundreds of energy chains and cables with ISO Class 1 to 4 from stock.
