A Perfect Match - igus® readycable®: industrial cable assembly from chainflex® cable with HARTING industrial connectors. Whether it's pre-assembled control cables or individual customised assemblies with no minimum order quantity - the extensively tested chainflex® cable quality in combination with the HARTING connector types Han 3A, 6B, 10B, 16B and 24B as a ready-to-connect readycable® solution for industrial applications helps to save time-consuming connector assembly and guarantees safe components.

What is so special about it?
Good reasons for igus to rely on the partnership with HARTING for cable assembly: In addition to the ability to integrate into its own production, the following criteria were decisive for igus when selecting HARTING as a supplier for modular plug-in connectors:
What makes this partnership so special?
The readycable production of igus can fully utilise its strengths with HARTING as a supplier and design-in partner of modular Han® industrial plug-in connectors. Quality, throughput, productivity and thus also the price are clearly in favour of industrial cable assembly at igus. If you combine this mechanical processing of the contacts in the HARTING inserts with upstream mechanical cable processing, specialised harnessing areas and Kanban warehouses, you get the incomparable flexibility of igus readycable:

"4 years chainflex cable guarantee and service life calculator based on 2 billion test cycles per year"
The chainflex cables used for readycable are intensively tested in our own 3,800m² test laboratory, the largest in the industry. The ready-to-connect readycable cables guarantee a long service life thanks to extensive tests and quality checks in our own laboratory and more than 25 years of experience in the manufacture and harnessing of cables.
igus is now the first German company to have this promise validated for chainflex cable. In a complex certification process, the US institute "Underwriters Laboratories" confirmed the accuracy of the statement "igus 4-year chainflex cable guarantee and service life calculator based on 2 billion test cycles per year". This makes the Cologne-based company the first in Europe to have the veracity of an advertising claim confirmed by a testing institution. In future, no chainflex cable will leave the factory anywhere in the world that is not labelled with the UL marketing label with its unique number B129699, which refers to igus.

A ready-to-connect connector module instead of many individual connectors
The Module Connect is the concept of a new type of connector for connecting electrical cables, fibre optic cables and pneumatic hoses. It is characterised by a space-saving, flat housing and is used wherever several or a large number of cables need to be connected in the smallest possible space.
This is a joint development by igus & HARTING and makes use of the highly customisable Han-Modular plug-in connector from HARTING. All components in the form of inserted modules, required joint frames and housing can be combined in any modular way and ordered from igus as readycable for cable harnessing. igus already gave the go-ahead for the first sample projects in 2018.

More industrial plug-in connectors
Power connectors, signal connectors and several thousand connector components - this is how igus creates high material availability with short delivery times.

Cable sold by the metre
Cables sold by the metre for moving applications in the energy chain: chainflex meets all requirements for electromagnetic compatibility safety as well as standards and guidelines such as UL, CSA, EAC and many more.

Ready-to-connect drive cables
With around 4,600 harnessed motor, servo, signal and encoder cables, igus is the world's No. 1 for harnessed cables for use in energy chains.

Ready-to-install energy supply systems
Harnessed energy supply systems from a single source: save up to 80% on process costs with our igus readychain offers.
