Durable drag chains for overhead gantry cranes

Durable energy chains for gantry cranes are essential components designed for the efficient overhead movement of loads within buildings, such as in production and assembly areas. These cranes, fixed to the building, enable movement in three directions, requiring cables, hoses, and energy supplies to follow suit. Ensuring short downtimes, low maintenance, and functional reliability is critical for economic efficiency and occupational safety. Given the unique building conditions and application areas, gantry cranes are typically custom-made, including the crane track and energy supply system. igus® e-chain® cable carriers are a durable and cost-effective alternative to busbars, festoons and cable reels. e-chain® systems are engineered with high-performance plastics and have space-saving designs, allowing for easy mounting either directly to the crane or on top.
