Energy supply
Harnessed energy chains in automatic medication picking systems face special requirements.
In large machines, the X-axis is always a particularly great challenge. All supply lines the machine requires run through this e-chain, which can be very long. That is why reliability is especially important here. Because each machine tool is unique, we always try to find the best solution for the application in question. The […]
What specific advantages does the energy chain have over the classical festooning or cable trolley system in an indoor crane? Increased interior range without obstacles. Unexcelled distances under the entire crane girder. Low chain system installation space necessary on the crane. No cables dangling from the crane girder – greater storage space. Small clearance between the hook and the wall. Longer cable service life. Operating and maintenance costs lower than those of festooning or a cable trolley system. Less susceptibility to errors. No components that require regular lubrication.
Guidelite ECO: Part 1 For vertical energy supply in intralogistics such as storage and retrieval units, lifters and other lifts, the energy chain is still preferred to the busbar system. The travel or stroke lengths are generally less than 50 metres – usually much less. The question is this: which costs less? Busbar system or […]
How do I ensure an abrasion-resistant energy supply system in a cleanroom? Many manufacturing processes, e.g. the production of printed circuit boards on linear systems for high-precision adjustments, take place in cleanrooms and require mandatory regulations according to ISO 14644 or VDI 2083. However, this alone does not guarantee absolutely clean production, as the materials […]
