Energy chain guide system is enclosed for safe operation

1 min read

Micro fizz 10 aluminium guides for assembly systems have been developed by igus to meet the engineers and designer's need for a larger cable and hose capacity, compared to the existing MF06 and MF08 series.

Thanks to its enclosed design, the micro fizz guide system is already proving an ideal solution for a variety of applications, ranging from sliding doors to camera and studio equipment. One of the advantages of using the micro fizz 10 guide system is that it is enclosed on three sides, with the moving end located below and the channel covered from the top. This innovative design prevents tools, dirt or even rain and snow from falling inside, thus making the micro fizz ideal from both indoor and outdoor applications. And thanks to the integrated spring element, the polymer energy chain is captive in the guide system whilst still having low friction and maintenance-free properties. Other key features include a low friction carriage and mounting brackets for easy joining and fixing of the system.
