Energy chain guidance over the phone
Mobile-optimised pages and videos on the Igus website act as an installation guide for the company's energy chains.
Energy chain expert Igus is now offering a highly functional Internet service that comes with a display optimised for mobile phones.
The company's web pages include operating instructions for all energy supply systems from Igus in the form of text, photos and short video clips.
This allows anyone to get tips for the assembly of any Igus e-chain system, wherever they are.
Using a mobile phone with web browsing facility, users can receive the required information quickly from the user-friendly "Igus mobile pages".
The photos and movies - especially optimised for mobile browsers - show how energy chain links can be easily separated, put together, how to assemble connecting elements and intermediate linking and also how the different energy chain series can be easily filled with cables and hoses.
