FOC in industrial use

The company MACH4 Automatisierungstechnik in Bochum develops, produces and sells automated medicine storage facilities for pharmacies and hospitals. From the very start, fiber optic cables have been used in the energy supply systems in all the facilities.
In the meantime the CFLG.2HG.MF from igus® has been performing its job without problems in well over 300 facilities for eight years.

Dirk Beils, Managing Director of MACH4:
"The resistance to interference of the FOC against electromagnetic influences and the absolutely reliable data transmission and high data transmission rate play a decisive role here. Added to that is the higher stability of the FOC compared with copper cables. ” The same goes for Durst Phototechnik AG, the worldwide leader in the field of photo printers and large inkjet printers. Assembled igus® fiber optic cables are used in its Austrian plant in Lienz (East Tyrol). Reinhard Schneeberger from the design department: “We are satisfied with this solution. Because this is how we produce the necessary high transfer rates and image data for the respective print heads. “
