The service life of the rollers of an energy supply system generally depends on the roller material and the external environment. Free-running or unprotected rollers are exposed to external influences. In energy chain systems, rollers are integrated in the chain link and “lubricated for life” with a seawater-resistant lubricant. A replacement for such a system […]
There is a bearing point for pivoting movement in every connection of the chain links. This was equipped with a maintenance-free tribo-polymer plain bearing. The igus iglidur plain bearing ensures that the wear on these “joints” of the energy chain is kept to a minimum and that the service life can be significantly increased. In […]
With energy chains you can carry energy, data and air, oils or water in one system. The energy chain is thus the most modular guidance system. It is a great challenge for operators of sewage plants, waste incineration plants, cranes, power plants or mines to guide data, energy and hydraulics safely on long travels. High […]
