Selective Laser Sintering(SLS) is one of the powder-based additive manufacturing technologies. Physical plastic components are manufactured on the basis of CAD data by means of the energy input of a laser beam. The plastic in powder form is used as the starting material. The laser is either a CO² laser or an infra-red laser.
igus ® chainflex ® cables can be found in an endless amount of industries and applications due to the number of environments igus caters for. Mainly, but not entirely, igus cables are used in energy chains and can be found in several e chain industries as well. How can chainflex ® work for you?
All our chainflex® cables undergo rigorous testing to ensure the maximum service life of igus® cables, because of this we can supply our unique 36-month-guarantee. Here we will go through 8 of our cable tests.
Our journey with a cable begins with the most basic component, copper. Copper starts out as raw material and is pulled into smaller strands called litz wires. The number of litz wires required for a cross section depends on the size of the litz wire, a thinner wire will require more strands than a thicker wire to make the same cross section size.
