Energy chains, cables, and
bearing products for machine tools

Turning, milling, pressing, hammering, cutting, from low to high automation, from machining centres to production lines: without machine tools, there is no production. However, no machine can operate without a reliable supply of electricity, data, air or media. igus energy chains and cables are made for movement, improved machine performance and easy assembly. Servo cables suitable for manufacturer drives, energy chains that can be opened without tools, tubes with chip protection, bearing technology made of high-performance plastics for machine doors or rotary movements, clamps to prevent crushing of pneumatic hoses, robot kinematics, Industry 4.0 sensor technology - we will equip your machine tool.
Energy chain installation

Successfully in use

If a chain breaks, the machine is stopped automatically to prevent subsequent damage.

Austrian engine factory

This engine manufacturer uses energy chains and abrasion monitoring. Sensors measure the chain wear during operation and notify the user early enough to plan a repair or an exchange.

White paper: machine tools

White paper: The influence of vibration on machine tools

Vibration behaviour of energy chains

Vibrations in machine tools components can lead to machines no longer working precisely, lowering the quality of workpieces and increasing wear of machine components. Energy chains, the "umbilical cord" of the modern machine tool, are a possible source of the problem. To improve their smooth running, innovative solutions are required ...
