Steel Cable Drag Chain

Sri Vigneshwara Equipments: Cable 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.

Sri Vigneshwara Equipments make cable 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, circular movements as well as combined horizontal and vertical movements.

Advantages:

Mechanical stress / strain on cable / hoses is reduced to a great extend. As there is no relative movement between the cable / hoses and the cable drag chain, there is no functional wear. Loop formation of cable / hose and torsional strain on them is avoided. Increased life of cable / hoses. Minimum maintenance required. Due to proper and systematic conveying, working area / shop floor appears neat.

Sri Vigneshwara Equipments cable drag chain can be used for conveying cables and hoses, wherein the medium in the hose can be air, liquid or any gaseous matter. Sri Vigneshwara Equipments cable drag chain 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.
