ORTON makes Cable Drag Chains are used for conveying flexible cables/hoses etc. to movable units with maximum reliability. The construction of these chains is such that they cannot bend below a fixed minimum radius which is decided based on the cable/hose size.
ORTON make Cable Drag Chains can be used for conveying cables and hoses. In case of hoses, the medium can be air, liquid or any gaseous matter. These chains can be used for horizontal applications, vertical applications, circular movements as well as combined horizontal and vertical movements.
Advantages
Very low maintenance required as the motors are extremely robust in construction & reliable in operation.
Large magnitude of force can be achieved
Amplitude of vibrations can be varied by changing the position of the centrifugal weights in standstill condition of the motor.
Extremely simple to connect and operate.
Depending on the application, motors with different RPM's can be selected.
ORTON cable drag chains can be supplied for wide ranges of length of travel, number of cables and hoses, acceleration and speed requirements, existing space conditions, movements and special work environments.
