Energy supply systems and bearings for injection moulding machines

In the machine bed, in the injection unit, in the clamping unit and in handling: our energy chain systems, highly flexible cables and maintenance-free bearing technology ensure a long service life in all moving units of your plastic injection moulding machine.
 
The special design of our chainflex® cable with strain-relieving core, bundle stranding and PVC or TPE outer sheaths is ideal for highly dynamic applications, such as the clamping unit with frequent movements and short cycle times. Our e-chain® ensures the secure routing of cable bundles. Their design is characterised by simple, quick installation and a cable-friendly interior - particularly interesting when using hydraulic hoses. In addition to small dimensions for small installation spaces, large unsupported lengths and additional loads are also possible. Our bearing products made from a wide range of materials score points for their low weight and freedom from corrosion and lubrication, such as drylin® linear guide, which ensure, for example, that the safety doors of the clamping unit glide smoothly.

High additional loads, accuracy and high temperatures are important factors when supplying energy to plastic machines. Our plastic-energy chains ensure safe guidance of cable and hose and also demonstrate their advantages with heavy loads:

• High additional loads possible
• Circular and swivelling movements possible
• Use at high temperatures
• Resistant to dust, powder deposits and moisture
• Space-saving design

With cost-effective automation solutions and smart plastic, we also address the key topics of system integration and plastics industry 4.0.
