The mounting chain link at the beginning and end of the energy chain can be made as lockingor moving. Pivoting connections are used as standard, but in vertical standing applications locking connections can be used, for instance, to prevent the chain from swinging away. In order to obtain additional stability, the mounting brackets are often […]
Four installation options define the position of the connection surfaces of the mounting brackets on energy chains. For most mounting brackets, a distinction is made between the connection surface in the inner radius and outer radius. Here are 4 possible options A1 to A4. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -1You already voted!
Pivoting mounting brackets are used as standard. In pivoting connections, a pivoting movement takes place between the mounting bracket and the first chain link. Locking mountig brackets are used in vertical standing applications – here, a locking connection is created between the first chain link and mounting bracket, which avoids a swing out of the […]
A lowered connecting point is absolutely necessary for every gliding application: To prevent chain breakage through critical sag. To reduce wear (if the moving end is not lowered, there is more abrasion) Example: If we move the e-chain from right to left till the gap between the upper run and the lower run is 1mm, […]
With a mounting angle between 3-5°, the e-chain is slightly forced downward by the push/pull force. This prevents the rising up of the e-chain. The angle of incidence of the upper run to the lower run is approximately 3-5°. This angle is also ideal for reducing wear. If the upper run is installed in parallel […]
