This year, igus developed and introduced a unique stress relief element for the towline. Cables and hoses can be easily placed in a honeycomb-shaped strain relief element and then closed tightly. At the 2017 International Installation and Use of Technical Professionals' MOTEK), sports plastic specialist igus unveiled the new stress-relief element and will completely replace the older version, compared with the commonly used cable ties and other strain relief solutions, this advanced honeycomb-shaped strain relief The components save users 80% of their design and assembly time.

igus' cellular honeycomb stress-relief element, CFU, can replace the cable ties commonly used in the industry. This element has the obvious advantage that cables and hoses can easily be placed in a honeycomb-shaped strain relief element and closed. In previous solutions, Each of the cables in the chain must be held separately.This new solution allows the lumen of the stressor to gently and evenly envelop the cable.The new components are also very convenient and flexible and can be assembled in just a few seconds, And you can manually insert or replace the new cable.Compact CFU optimized design more compact, easy and flexible cable filling.
Design flexibility, versatility
The new linker towline CFU formation, and can be used for aerial gliding applications. Such products may correspond to different widths of towline Various cable directly into the cloth vertically CFU, and CFU close and tighten. Jaws on the side plates towline can be connected and strain relief., it is possible to engineer the stress of the towline and to the planning and design prior to the determination by the particular type of cable to the cellular stress element and in a subsequent embodiment, the modification may be flexible. this honeycomb strain relief is currently E4.1L towline special. special cellular strain relief with a customized interior separation system that allows E4.1L towline become the market's most easy to arrange cable towline series.
