e-tract 2.0 cable retraction system

Order at the charging station

Design

e-tract is a solution for automatic rewinding of a cable. This prevents hazards and cable damage due to improper winding or obstructing cables. The e-tract is used in applications where a mobile terminal is connected to a cable and was previously rolled up by hand. Multiple deflection means that long extension lengths are possible where there is limited installation space. A slip ring is dispensed with completely.

• Compact wallbox integrated
• Can be manufactured from recycled plastic
• Protected and visually tidy
• Rotating base

Typical application areas: 
Control panels, tools on assembly lines and work tables, charging stations

Tech up

• Neatly rolled up cable
• Visually tidier
• Protected from wind and weather
• Can be combined with all commercially available wallbox systems
• Cable-friendly plastic rollers
• Defined bend radius protects the cables

Cost down

• Protection against cable theft (when retracted)
• Longer service life thanks to protection from weathering

Proof

• Test setup in the igus laboratory

Sustainability

• Resource-saving or CO₂-neutral production
• Use of recycled or recyclable raw materials
• Supports e-mobility

Before

Without e-tract, the cable is exposed to the weather.

After

With e-tract, the cable is neatly rolled and protected.
