Energy chains
With the new pull-e-cable design study, igus is presenting a particularly low-profile and cost-efficient solution for guiding cables over long travels – without the need for a classic energy chain. The system is ideal for applications with limited installation space and a low budget, for example in camera technology, laboratories, moveable displays or automation.
The starting signal for the application phase of the vector award 2026 has been given. For the tenth time, a joint initiative is honouring designers worldwide who use energy chains made of high-performance plastic to create cable guides that set new technological standards. The winners receive up to 5,000 euros in prize money.
