A cable conveyor, also known as a cable chain or cable carrier, is a device that organizes and protects wires within sturdy linkages. It ensures that cables are neatly arranged and safeguarded from external damage and tangling, thereby extending their lifespan and reducing maintenance needs.
Cable conveyors enable cables to move along with the moving parts of machinery without obstruction, promoting smooth operation and enhancing safety.
Cable conveyors have various applications across industries:
Utilized in industrial robots, these conveyors protect cables during the robot's movement, allowing for greater flexibility and precision.
They organize and protect wires on automated production lines, enhancing efficiency and preventing damage or tangling.
Used in medical devices like MRI and CT scanners, cable conveyors organize cables to ensure stable operation and safety.
Cable conveyors consist of interconnected links that house cables and allow machinery to move flexibly. Materials like aluminum, iron, or hard plastics are used based on environmental needs. These conveyors reduce friction and shock to cables during operation and protect them from external elements like chemicals and dust.
When choosing a cable conveyor, consider:
Select a width that accommodates the number and size of cables needed. Ensure it's not too narrow to prevent tangling or too wide for efficient protection.
Choose a suitable number of links based on the working area and movement requirements. Avoid excessively long conveyors that may cause resistance.
Choose between plastic (lightweight and versatile) and metal (durable for high loads and harsh environments) based on the application.
Consider the maximum speed for applications involving moving parts to ensure the conveyor and cables can handle the speed without excessive strain.
