Fast cable selection tool
10 March 2015
The readycable product finder is the latest online tool from cabling specialist igus that provides users a quick and easy way of selecting from over 2830 ready-made drive cables suitable for a range of applications.
The tool, which can be found at: http://www.igus.co.uk/RCProductFinder, features cables with different approvals and compliances from 20 different manufacturers’ standards. Once the appropriate cable has been selected, the user can place an order instantly and the product can be dispatched from 24 hours.
"Over the years igus has developed numerous online tools as it strives to make its products fully configurable and available to order online with rapid delivery,” comments Justin Leonard, director, igus. "This latest tool, which comes from our readychain and readycable business unit, is extremely simple to use, enabling customers to select and order the specific cable they need with the knowledge that it will be delivered the next day.”
Finding the right drive cable for a particular application is straightforward; the user can either enter the manufacturer’s part number or select a manufacturer by name from the dropdown menu. Once the cable has been selected, a detailed overview of it is then provided that includes information such as the outer jacket material (PUR, PVC or TPE), bending radius, environmental conditions, travel distances and conformity with relevant standards such as UL and CSA.
