Developed to combine the advantages of the E2/000 and E4.1 in one product range, the E4.1L ‘lean’ features interior clip in slotted separators that provide up to an 80% assembly time saving.The design of these lean separators enables layer-by-layer insertion of shelves and cables, and the time savings are increased again by using the lean honeycomb strain relief.

Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is another key focus. An online configurator enables engineers to configure gear wheels simply by entering the specifications of the required gear wheel – tooth module, number of teeth, width and inner diameter. This automatically displays a 3D model that can be exported as a STEP file and uploaded onto the igus online 3D printing service. With a mouse click, the customer can order printed parts for shipment within 1-3 days, or request a quotation. Stand E185
