Video of the Week – igus QuickPin 2.0 makes Cable Design Simple

In comparison to conventional cable and connector selection methods, where electrical engineers would write lists of parts and produce many drawings before producing an overall cable design, the igus QuickPin 2.0 can produce the same outcome but within a matter of minutes – each custom cable configuration is assigned a unique part number for easy ordering and speedy delivery.

With easy individual pin allocation, and over 850 igus chainflex cables and around 3000 plug and socket components to choose from, QuickPin 2.0 delivers engineers a cable design configuration that can be stored via the download manager and easily recalled and/or modified, thus saving time and costs further down the line.

To accommodate plug variations, QuickPin 2.0 features an easy-to-use, menu-driven selection tool, which has inbuilt logic checking. In addition to this, the sophisticated software generates clear pictures of the layout, the price (including the copper surcharge), as well as producing a macro for each cable.
