Cable carrier systems

6 July 2011 Interconnection

The new Kabelschlepp range, which extends from standard individual components to complete system solutions, is available in heavy-duty steel and durable, lightweight plastic materials. The cable carriers are targeted at applications ranging from computer plotters and highly sensitive test and measurement equipment, to offshore drilling rigs and high-speed automated machining centres.

The plastic range of cable carriers consists of the Basic-Line series (solid and ‘press in’ cable carriers with fixed chain widths), Vario-Line (variable chain widths), the Tube-Line series (covered cable carriers with flexible energy conduits) and 3D-Line (cable carriers for 3D movements). The Steel-Line series consists of steel cable carriers which range from lightweight systems to robust units for demanding applications.

Also available are Life-Line safety cables. This series includes control, power and data cables, as well as coaxial, system and signal cables. Totaltrax complete systems consist of matched components – cable carriers, cables and connectors – with assembly plates, ready for connection.

New to the Kabelschlepp range are emergency cable carriers which are designed to prevent downtime and minimise repair costs. The ECC series, which detects a blockage in the travel lengths of cable carriers, automatically switches the system off to prevent damage to the entire cable system. In addition to the emergency stop function, the ECC series also offers a bridging safeguard for the braking distance in both directions of travel. Once the blockage has been removed, the system is easily re-coupled and ready for operation immediately.
