Plug-in e-chain®: make your energy chain ready to plug & play

Tech up

• Simplest fastening in your application
• Integrated strain relief and seal

Cost down

• Save 80% assembly time
• Optimised ready-to-install assemblies
• For service: unplug it, plug it back in, done

Proof

• Cost-effective interface solution: one connector instead of many individual connectors
• Almost infinite combinations
• Absolute plug-in safety

Sustainability

• Existing igus^® energy supply systems can be integrated with individual configurations

Wherever fast reaction times are required, e.g in the event of a fault, the plug-in e-chain with the Module Connect adapter ensures fast connection of the energy supply system and avoids long downtimes.
 
For example in an automatic parking system, where the customer leaves his car for parking. The car is weighed and measured by the system and automatically moved into a suitable parking position. If there is a downtime due to a cable break in the e-chain or a leakage in the pneumatic hose, for example, every service technician should be able to disconnect the defective energy chain and connect a new, harnessed energy chain. With the adapter this is possible quickly and easily - without the need for basic electronic knowledge.  
 
Module Connect adapters are not only used in automatic parking systems and ensure fast maintenance, but also in production or pharmacy systems and wherever energy supply systems need to be plugged in.

German Design Winner 2021: The Module Connect Adapter

All about Module Connect in one video

The connector modules can be adapted to the filling and geometry of the e-chain in one or more layers. This enables ideal cabling in terms of function and design for every application.
 
Combining the system with the universal strain relief system from igus enables secure attachment directly in the connector housing. The soft elements used enclose the cables and hold them securely in place without damaging them. Visually reminiscent of a honeycomb, the flexible structure adapts itself to different cable diameters which provides universal strain relief.
 
For Module Connect, there are a variety of application possibilities, such as at the chain fixed end or moving end, between two e-chains or for the insertion of cables in terminal boxes or switch cabinets.

Ready to install instead of separate parts  No company has to deal with installing energy chains and cables for their machines any more. With our readychain system, we provide individual, harnessed energy supply systems, which can be easily installed on site.

The largest test lab worldwide

From more than 15,000 tests performed per year, we have created what is probably the world's largest test database. This ­database gives us the ability to always select the right product for your specific application. Individual tests for your industry are also possible.
