Heavy loads, long periods of use, and a wide variety of weatherconditions – cranes in port facilities must perform at their best. The fields of application include, among others, ship-to-shore cranes, bulk cargo handling cranes, RTGs, RMGs, Goliath cranes, spreaders and reach stackers. In total, more than 25,000 igus energy chains move across long distances […]
To load and unload the cutting-edge – keyword Triple E-class – container ships, larger STS cranes must be built or existing cranes retrofitted. Container crane availability and dependability requirements are also increasing. For future operations, in addition to using rol e-chains, there is much to recommend self-monitoring systems fitted with sensors . They ensure the greatest possible […]
More than 25,000 igus energy chains move over long distances every year, whether in STS cranes, storage and retrieval units or linear robots. In all these areas of application, customers around the world rely on the tough, modular igus energy chain systems. In the latest development stage, maintenance-free tribo-polymer plain bearings considerably lengthen service life. In […]
All products used in cleanrooms need to fulfil the same requirement: During operation, as few particles as possible should be released into the surrounding area. This is especially applicable for moving machine parts such as energy chains and cables. To generate as few particles as possible requires high abrasion resistance, and is therefore also an […]
Almost every igus® energy chain series can be fitted with various mounting brackets. There are pivoting and locking mounting brackets. These can be ordered as a set or individually, e.g. if the moving end should be locking and the fixed end pivoting. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You already voted!
