The European Union is therefore working on a ban on the substances. With the ‘PFAS-free’ seal, igus GmbH—a motion plastics expert—demonstrates that their own chainflex cables are free of chemicals and already offer customers operational safety in the event of a ban. \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>PFAS and PTFE—that sounds very chemical and abstract. However, the abbreviations actually refer to chemical compounds used in numerous everyday applications. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is better known under the brand name Teflon. Perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl compounds (PFAS) can be found in coated clothing, baking paper, fire extinguishers, and make-up, but also in a number of plastics. As PFAS are difficult to degrade in the environment and are long-lasting, the European Union is currently pushing for a restriction or even a ban on over 10,000 PFAS compounds. To arm themselves against a ban at an early stage, industrial companies are increasingly demanding their supplied plastics be PFAS-free. igus now guarantees exactly that with the ‘PFAS-free’ seal for its chainflex cables. \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>95 percent of chainflex cables are PFAS-free \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>The Cologne-based plastics specialist already dispenses with the corresponding chemicals in 95 percent of its cables, giving its customers planning security even in the event of an EU-wide ban. All chainflex cables labeled as ‘PFAS-free’ are made from materials such as insulation, jacket, tapes, etc., that are free from fluorine compounds. This excludes possible impurities or measured value limits that cannot be fully excluded due to external influences, for example. This means that igus already fulfills international requirements, as in some countries the export of PFAS has already been restricted and is subject to notification or authorization. “With the ‘PFAS-free’ seal, we offer our customers security and continue to strongly promote igus’ sustainability claim by doing so without harmful compounds,” explains Rainer Rössel, Head, Chainflex Cables, igus.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>More than 1,350 cables in the range \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>The chainflex cables have been specially developed for use in moving applications and can be found in many systems worldwide. In addition to safe energy supply in the energy chain, they are also used in cranes, machine tools, and robotics. The range has now grown to over 1,350 cables, forming part of a wide range of cable types: igus offers control, bus, data, motor, fiber optic cables, and more. They are characterized by their durability and robustness, a fact that the company owes, among other things, to its in-house test laboratory. On an area of 3,800 square meters at the company headquarters in Cologne, igus experts carry out over two billion test cycles per year. The expertise gained from the tests is also the reason why the company decided more than ten years ago to offer a 36-month guarantee for chainflex cables. Based on the positive experience, it increased the guarantee period from three to four years last year. “This way, we are also increasing planning and operational reliability when purchasing our cables, even beyond the PFAS issue,” concludes Rössel.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\r\n\u003Cp>For more information: \u003Cstrong>www.igus.in\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>","https:\u002F\u002Fmedia.magicwandmedia.in\u002Fposts\u002FApril2024\u002Fq4N44H6fAPvxBIO8NbXB.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fmedia.magicwandmedia.in\u002Fsocial\u002Fhorizontal\u002Fposts\u002FApril2024\u002Fq4N44H6fAPvxBIO8NbXB.jpg","2024-04-13T04:40:30+05:30","MWM Desk","News",0,"igus has introduced a new PFAS-free seal for its chainflex cable range to ensure compliance with upcoming EU environmental regulations.\nCurrently, 95 percent of the igus chainflex product portfolio is entirely free of harmful fluorine compounds.\nThe company reinforces its reliability by offering a four-year guarantee on its durable cable solutions for moving industrial applications.","Sustainability in industrial automation is no longer just a goal—it’s a manufacturing imperative.
