The compact igus® twisterband is cost-effective and allows rotary movements of up to 7,000°, even in extremely tight spaces. Energy, data, and media are guided reliably in a manner that requires little maintenance.
Typical industries and applications:
cable drums; robots (robot arms, first/sixth
axis, SCARA robots); machine tools;
medical equipment; radar and telescope equipment;
aerospace; test, measurement, handling, lifting, and
installation equipment; wind turbines (blade adjustment); etc.
