Overview
Our long travel drag chain systems are available in both plastic and steel, with stainless steel options available for particularly demanding or corrosive environments. Designed for reliable operation over extended travel distances, they provide dependable protection for moving cables and hoses in a wide range of industrial applications.
For faster installation and reduced downtime, we can supply complete energy chain systems with cables pre-installed, coiled and ready for installation. Guide trough systems are engineered for quick, straightforward assembly, while drive arm connections can be supplied to meet individual customer requirements.
To maximise cable life and system reliability, each installation incorporates effective cable strain relief, together with carefully designed cable entry and exit points within the guide trough. This ensures cables transition smoothly into and out of the energy chain, reducing wear and minimising the risk of mechanical damage throughout the system's service life.
