Lubrication-free plastic energy chain replaces metal cable guidance in steel mill

The previous metal energy chain had to be lubricated and was susceptible to dust and dirt.

Profile

  • What was needed: E4.4 energy chain, chainflex® cable for moving applications
  • Requirements: A lightweight chain system was to be found that could cope with the high dust load and did not need to be lubricated.
  • Industry: Cranes
  • Success for the customer: The plastic-energy chain E4.4 combines a modular design with high robustness and can be used without lubrication and virtually without the need for maintenance. The system and chainflex® cable have been in use without any problems since 2007.
