Compact and cost effective

Wind tunnel scales

These scales which are used for tests in the wind tunnel can be turned through 180° in both directions away from their original position. The travel speed is about 2° per second. This application was solved using three igus® e-chains® of the 5050 series, which guarantees independent feed to power, measuring and control cables in a compact and low-cost version which does not require much installation time and takes EMC criteria into account.
