EXTENDED TRAVEL - KabelSkate KS for POLYMER Carrier Systems

KabelSkate KS (used with POLYMER cable carrier systems) The patented KabelSkate KS system utilizes a special ultra-light weight rolling carriage placed between the cable carrier’s upper and lower runs to dramatically reduce, by more than 95%, the frictional factor and associated push-pull forces during normal operation. This system is ideally suited for highly loaded, extremely long travel (500 meters) applications with speeds up to 3.5 meters per second using an opposed 2 chain arrangement. For long-term trouble free operation the KabelSkate KS system does not use a costly guide channel. All that is required is a flat, level and smooth surface to run on outside of any traffic areas

Because the KabelSkate KS system is so efficient at eliminating friction, the complete extended travel carrier system can be easily moved by one person without using any additional mechanical aids.

KabelSkate KS is so efficient that a towing force of just a few kilograms is enough to ensure that a system load of several tons comprised of the chain, cable, and components can be moved safely and easily.

Flanged rolling casters similar to railway wheels keep KabelSkate's KS self-guiding system in perfect alignment over extraordinarily long travel distances without using a guide channel.
