How strong are vibrations in the e-chains?

Marco Thull | 4. July 2019

Energy supply systems should have lowvibration, so that the precision of machinery and equipment are not affected negatively. However, commercially available models show considerable differences in the vibration behaviour. How strong are the vibrations of energy chains of different manufacturers? The Laboratory for Machine Tools and Industrial Engineering (WZL) of the RWTH Aachen wanted to […]

How can vibrations in energy chains be minimised?

Marco Thull | 4. July 2019

In order for machines to operate with low vibration and thus reliably and precisely, designers in energy chains must master the so-called polygon effect . If the chain does not run completely round in the bending segment, a circle, which is the ideal movement for the chain, becomes a polygon. During the unwinding of the […]
