Cable reel for energy chains proves its worth on the stage

By April 13, 2016 4:36 pm IST

The e-spool from igus, a cable reel for energy chains, has passed all the noise tests in the igus test laboratory with flying colours. This means it has distinguished itself as an ideal solution for applications in noise-sensitive areas, such as in stage engineering. With the space-saving e-spool, energy, media or fibre optic data cables can be run together in a single system, as it requires no slip ring.
The Cologne-based motion plastics specialist igus operates the largest testing laboratory in the industry with a floor area of 2,750 square metres, where all products have to pass various tests. There, more than 3,000 basic and user-specific tests are performed annually for energy chain systems alone in 180 test facilities under real conditions. These include tests at various temperatures and pressures, or even in contact with chemical substances. Tests are, for example, also conducted in the special noise chamber. It was here that the e-spool from igus was subjected to an intensive test for its noise emissions during operation. e-spool is an alternative to conventional cable reels for very tight radii and installation spaces. In the tests, the cable-friendly energy, data and media supply system of the latest generation has been proved extremely quiet. In particular the absence of slip rings minimises the noise development significantly in this special reel. An e-spool equipped with ‘anti-vibration matting was able to reach levels below 46dB (A) in these tests.
