By: igus® Singapore Pte Ltd Designing cable guidance for cleanrooms has long been a complex task, requiring expert selection of cables, compliance with strict EN ISO Class 1 standards and detailed technical documentation. The e-skin flat configurator streamlines this process by guiding users step-by-step, checking feasibility in real time and automatically recommending optimal system configurations. "The configurator is the first tool dedicated to cleanroom cable guide design," says Kira Weller, Product Manager e-chains and cleanroom expert at igus. "Users gain immediate planning certainty without lengthy coordination." The e-skin flat system features abrasion-resistant high-performance plastic and easy-to-open chambers for quick cable insertion and maintenance. Suitable for dry cleanrooms, it has also earned the Best of Industry Award 2025 in the category of battery development and production. Using application data such as speed, acceleration and installation space, the configurator accesses the extensive chainflex cable range and readycable options. An integrated algorithm performs automatic filling and flags non‑viable layouts, while still allowing manual adjustments. Once configured, all documents—including a STEP file—are available instantly, and users can request a quotation with just a click. "Our goal was to make cleanroom cable system design as simple and reliable as possible," adds Weller. "Intelligent automation now delivers maximum planning efficiency for our customers."
