The triflex swivel arm offers perfect robot solution

201211_igusFor applications where you need to connect a supply direct to axis 2, the new triflex swivel bracket is the ideal solution. In this latest Igus video of the week you can see the new swivel arm in action.

In 3D applications, rotating and pivoting movements are part of everyday life. Energy chains are required here, which safely guide and protect robot cables. The triflex R (TRE, TRC and TRL) energy chain has been specifically developed for demanding multi-axis robots. Due to its high tensile force absorption and high flexibility, the energy chain enables a rotation of about ±10° per chain link with complicated motions in the vertical axes. Compared to a cable protection hose, triflex R offers a defined bend radius, which greatly increases the service life of cables and hoses.
