Information
energy chains of conventional design are operated over long travel distances in sliding mode. Extending the technical limits of this type of operation was the trigger for the development of the roller energy chain. The igus® roller energy chains are predestined for applications in which long travel distances have to be realized at high speeds. This is often the case, for example, with finishing cameras or in conveyor technology. The system's low coefficient of friction can also save costs in slower applications in the crane sector or in shifting systems, as the dimensions of the drives can be significantly smaller.
Advantages of igus® roller-energy chain at a glance:
Roller energy chains are safe, space-saving and very low-maintenance. Cable lengths can be reduced by up to 50 % (compared to festoon systems)
Significant reduction in drive power to less than 37 % for moving the energy chain
Travel distances of 1,000 metres and more
For high speeds of up to 10 m/s
Uniform rolling resistance for applications with dirt
