“readychain” Ready-to-Use Robotic Dress Packs

igus offers standard “readychain” ready-to-use robotic dress packs for simple installation as well as multi-axis cable guidance and protection. In automated plants and other manufacturing facilities, downtime creates a critical situation. Once production stops, every minute counts, making new standard, fully assembled dress packs for industrial robots suitable to get systems back up and running.

The standard assembled dress packs consist of triflex multiaxis cable carriers, guaranteed chainflex continuous-flex cables, hoses and other components that can be adapted to suit the needs of each customer’s individual needs. “The growing need for retrofit solutions in existing plants gave us the idea to develop and offer standardized dress packs for robots,” explains Dale Rheaume, product manager for readychain harnessed systems at igus.

To suit the needs of all robotic systems, igus preharnessed dress packs are available with optional connectors harnessed to more than 20 manufacturer standards with original plug connectors, dress pack retraction systems, and on-site installation and inspection services. The online QuickRobot tool is also available to configure a custom robotic solution from more than 2,000 available options with just a few clicks.
