Extra-flexible energy chain cables

With thermoplastic polymer insulation and PUR cover, for use in energy chains with travel speed up to 250 m/min.

UL & CSA certified. Halogen-free and non-flame propagating cable.

Machines are becoming more dynamic and capable of producing in a faster and more diverse way. Mechatronics is more present and therefore wiring and chain carrier systems are exposed to more severe working conditions.

It is common to find cables in use in chains which are not suitable for it, causing production stops and economic losses. This is not surprising since the bending radius, travel length, speed and acceleration have meant for some cables a precipitous deterioration.

These cables are used for highly flexible applications in machinery, robotics and for mobile automated parts. It has excellent performance at high speeds and accelerations on long energy chain travels.

In addition, these cables are subject to the latest technological developments with high slip coefficients, guarantee a long cable life that make it economical, due to the TPE-E insulation of the conductor, PUR of the cover and its constructive shape. The PUR material is freely adhered, resistant to friction to abrasion, impact and extremely harsh industrial environments.

Its extra-flexible feature makes it ideal for use in dynamic applications such as moving parts of machines or energy chains without tension load, in indoor installations. Non-flame propagator and resistant to most oils and chemicals generally used in the industrial field

They are used in installations where there is a combination of dynamic tensile forces, torsion, fllexion, high-speed displacements, and where the cable is wound and unwinded.

The cables that we have in our market place, are economical, flexible and very durable. With proven functional safety, which complies with all current standards and guidelines.

PVC chain cables are suitable for flexible applications, e.g. control and data cables in machine tool chains. For use in any application where there is a transmission of signals or energy in addition to its use in machines or facilities in continuous motion.

The main features to take into account in this type of cables are:

Operating voltage, Bending radius, Operating temperature, Maximum travel speed, maximum acceleration/deceleration, Number of duty cycles. All this information can be found in the technical specification sheet of the product.

Application markets:
