e-skin - a revolutionary energy supply
20/01/2016 igus UK Ltd
The e-skin from igus® is an innovative energy supply system that consists of an upper and lower shell which, when fitted, together is completely closed. This week's video demonstrates how simple it is to open and close the system for super-fast assembly.Typical applications include pick & place, printers and other machines where corrugated tubes are currently still used. Due to its abrasion resistance and water and dust-proof offering, e-skin is also cleanroom compatible in accordance with IPA Class 1, and ideal for cleanroom appliances.
e-skin has a defined movement direction and can also support itself. It can therefore be used as a horizontal energy supply for short, unsupported lengths. In addition, the modular tube offers more space than round corrugated tubes, due to its oval design. Interior separation modules offer cable-friendly cable guiding.
The energy supply is available in a variety of materials and colours, and is also offered in small quantities to suit each user's individual requirements. To watch a demonstration of e-skin and see how simple it is to open and close, please visit: www.igus.co.uk/e-skinassembly
