igus to showcase complete series of cost-effective robotic solutions at Automate 2017
By Canadian Packaging staff
Automation Automate 2017 FANUC igus inc. igus triflex RSE cable retraction system robolink DComponents, advanced cable retraction systems, and modular, cost-effective robotic joints will be on display at Automate 2017 in Chicago, booth 2221.
Motion plastics specialist igus Inc. will be showing a wide range of components and solutions for automation and robotics at the upcoming Automate 2017 trade show held April 3-6, 2017 in Chicago’s McCormick Place in booth 2221.
Product experts will be on hand, and product demonstrations, inducing a Fanuc six-axis robotic arm featuring the igus triflex RSE cable retraction system, featuring lightweight yet rugged triflex R multi-axis cable carrier.
For lighter duty robotic applications, the cost-effective robolink D system offers a modular, customizable solution. The system is made up of self-lubricating joints and worm gears, run via stepper motor and available in three sizes. Components for all types of applications, including self-lubricating bearings, linear gantries, and more, will all be on display with samples and engineering information available.

The robolink D modular robotic joint system will be on display at the show in booth 2221.
