Download whitepaper www.igus.eu/cleanroom Stranded structure CFCLEAN cables with e-skin ® flat vs. classic PTFE flat cable guide Advantages of igus ® stranded structure CFCLEAN cables with e-skin ® Disadvantages of commercially available PTFE flat cable guides ● Highly abrasion-resistant and bend-resistant banding based on PTFE, to protect the stranded elements and minimise abrasion ● Multi-layer jacket that holds individual cores together: thin PTFE outer film, PUR inner layer ● No outer jacket in order to reduce weight and outer diameter ● An enclosed, non-separable system ● Extremely flexible braiding made of tinned copper wires, optical coverage 90% ● Cores are inseparable from each other ● Special TPE insulation for highly dynamic applications ● Individual elements not interchangeable, but entire systems ● Special core structure for maximum service life ● High prototype costs ● Flexible to application changes through simple replacement of CFCLEAN or e-skin ® flat profiles ● No longer flexibly changeable after completion ● Length and width can be changed as required ● In case of service, the complete ePTFE flat cable guides must be replaced ● Resources-friendly and service- friendly due to easy interchangeability of each individual element ● Ecologically and economically unsound due to waste of resources in case of damage vs.
