INV 13 Horizontal arrangement, curled
In some cases, a large angle of rotation cannot be implemented with one of the usual applications for circular movements. In these cases, an examination with regard to the options for curling up the cable carrier is recommended. A standard cable carrier can be used, but a relatively large installation space is required for curling up the configuration. The rotation in this application is limited by a maximum double wrapping of the inner diameter. Multiple wrappings cause the cable carrier to jam.
INV 14 Vertically rotating arrangement, hanging
This installation option is often used for swiveled drums and turning devices. The part rotating around the diameter requires chain links with KR and RKR in this area. If the angle of rotation is over 180° (depending on the arrangement), an additional guide plate is required on the outer radius to prevent the cable carrier from tipping over.
INV 15 Roller chain
Roller chains are primarily used where very long travel lengths lead to very high push and pull forces and gliding cable carriers reach their limits. The most effective installation option is the RSC (rail supported carrier) system. This is a cable carrier where the design in combination with an optimized guide channel ensures 100 % roller operation over the entire travel length. This results in minimum mechanical load and a low noise level. This makes the system suitable not only for extremely long travel lengths, but also for travel speeds over 5 m/s.
Despite the roller design, the RSC system can be fully wound on a reel and is therefore ideal for complete solutions with inserted cables for long travel lengths. Dimensioning is similarly easy as for a gliding cable carrier. For effective and fast implementation, especially for large projects, we can offer our expert help.
