Energy chains for smooth running and cleanroom

To keep noise to a minimum in production, you need machines that run smoothly. Our energy chains enable a quiet, trouble-free production process. The quiet movement is reached by combining low tendency to vibrate with minimal noise. For use in absolutely clean-air spaces, the e-skin energy supply is suitable for cleanrooms according to ISO Class 1. The simple, reclosable opening mechanism enables easy maintenance and inspection of the installed cables.

Typical industries and applications:nbspsemiconductor industry, printer/plotter industry, applications with highest acceleration ...
