RSC – ROLLER SUPPORTED CHAIN
Cable carriers on rollers for particularly long travel lengths
Rolling instead of gliding – the proven principle for reduced friction
Cable carriers on rollers are a secure and reliable solution wherever a gliding system cannot be installed due to very long travel lengths or strong friction. On the RSC, the upper run does not glide on the lower run but on rollers. The rollers are mounted in roller bearings on the side of the cable carriers and permit very long travel lengths, for which substantially less drive power is required. The tensile/push forces are decreased by up to 90 percent compared to gliding arrangements. Available for the types M0950 and M1300.
Cable carrier on rollers (RSC)
- Suitable for all required travel lengths
- 90 % lower tensile/push forces than with gliding arrangement and therefore significantly less drive power required
- Quiet, low-vibration operation
- Space-saving and cost-optimized through short loop overhang – minimum station length
- Rollers do not knock against each other
- Long service life – low maintenance
- Easy access to the rollers
- Minimized strain on cable carrier and cable carrier
- Low push/tensile forces
- High travel speeds and acceleration
- High additional loads possible
- Use of proven standard cable carriers
- Cable carrier cannot rise up
- Variable profile lengths, adapted to your connection points
