Cable guide on the robot


Every movement, no wear

With this industrial robot, a fixed pipe between the 3rd and 6th axis was replaced with a triflex cable guide that can be moved in multiple dimensions.  The pipe previously used wore out due to the permanent movement of the components. The advantage of triflex R cable guides: they can be shortened and lengthened as needed; hence, all movements of the robot can be supported. Furthermore, a drylin W linear guide with polymer sliding elements by igus is used as a retraction system.
