New universal clamp for energy chains and corrugated hoses ensures increased safety and reliability for collaborative robots

When humans and machines stand shoulder to shoulder on the production line, safety at work is a critical issue. To ensure cables and hoses are reliably and compactly guided on cobots, igus has developed a universal clamp.

The Lean Robotics retaining fixture, which is injection moulded, is available in one universal size, making it very cost-efficient. It is easy and simple to install using a Velcro strip. A slim design with rounded edges increases workplace safety by reducing the risk of injury when in contact with the robot.

Originally developed for the triflex R TRC/TRE/TRL 30, 40 and 50 e-chain series, the clamps also accommodate many of the commercially available corrugated hoses.
