Reliable Cable Assemblies with UL-Verified Service Life

igus® readycables® are engineered for continuous motion, tested for millions of cycles in energy chains, and feature precise OEM-matched connectors. They outlast standard cables in dynamic applications and reduce installation errors.

igus® tests all cable assemblies in a test lab under real-world conditions, measuring bending cycles, mechanical stress, temperature resistance, and electrical performance to ensure durability.

igus® readycable® supports over 40 manufacturing brands and standards including Siemens, Beckhoff, SEW-EURODRIVE and Allen-Bradley. All cables meet UL, CSA, and CE standards for global compliance.

Pre-tested and optimized for flexing applications, readycable® assemblies prevent failures, minimize maintenance, and extend service life, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

chainflex® cables offer high-strand conductors, optimized shielding, and durable PVC, PUR, or TPE jackets. They resist oil, UV, and chemicals, with tested service life data for predictive maintenance

igus® chainflex® cables exceed 10 million cycles in dynamic tests, while standard cables fail prematurely due to conductor breakage and insulation wear.

Yes. Most igus® robotic cables handle ±180° torsion per meter, and the CFROBOT8+ can handle ±360° torsion per meter, making them ideal for robotic arms, C-tracks, and multi-axis motion applications.

Use the readycable online configurator or consult our engineers. Selection is based on bending radius, travel length, environment, and required certifications.

igus® maintains an extensive stock of cables and connectors, allowing us to ship standard readycable® assemblies in as little as 3-5 days. For custom orders, lead times vary based on specifications, but we always prioritize rapid delivery. Lead time for drive cable orders less than 3 pieces is 3 days, and greater than 3 pieces is 1 week.

igus® cables feature >80% braided shield coverage, minimizing EMI and ensuring signal integrity in industrial automation and control systems.

Yes. TPE jackets withstand up to 180°C. Oil-resistant and flame-retardant options ensure optimal performance in harsh conditions.

igus® cables follow strict bending radius guidelines:

• Standard dynamic applications: 5-15x cable diameter
• Robotic cables: 6.8-10x cable diameter

Yes. igus® offers Ethernet, bus, and fiber optic cables with high-performance shielding for uninterrupted data transmission in motion applications.

igus® provides a service life calculator based on millions of test cycles. Enter movement parameters to estimate cable lifespan and optimize maintenance.
