New Products: Cable Carriers

    July 24, 2008
    Cable carriers are designed to guide and protect moving cables on automated machinery.

    The 2008 Energy Chain catalog features an introductory section to help in the selection process by highlighting key benefits, industries, and applications, and offers hints on the different designs available.

    New sizes for the System E6 line (a low-vibration cable carrier designed to emit little noise and operate smoothly) are available as is the modular SuperTrough — a new aluminum guide trough designed for long travels.

    The section on Triflex R multiaxis cable carriers for robotic applications has been revamped.
