Zipper system – Zip-quick installation

Extremely fast opening and closing with zipper e-chains and e-tubes – zipper e-chains deliver in terms of practicality and performance. The zipper function reduces assembly time. The small pitch, the tough-elastic zipper-band, and the sturdy link work well in high acceleration environments. The zipper series is one of the most popular igus e-chain series for demanding industrial sectors.
 
Your advantages:
  • quick and easy opening and closing
  • Small pitch for quiet, smooth running
  • High accelerations: 100m/s2 and more
Typical industries and applications:
Pick and place machines, semi-conductor machines, linear motors, handling applications, any technical devices, measuring equipment, machine tools (zipper e-tube)
