Cable chain is a device that protects cables or wires, which can prevent wires or cables from moving back and forth and avoid wear and tear. However, industrial technology is still unable to completely guarantee that the cable wrapped in the cable chain does not move, so how to reduce the wear and tear of the cable chain has become a problem that many people are more concerned about. Here I will introduce several methods for you. , hope it can help a little.

Application of Cable chain

Suitable for CNC machine tools, machining centers, automated machinery and production lines and other types of machine tools, robots, transportation machinery, measuring instruments, handling devices and other drive control. , The coordinated operation of the moving parts of mechanical equipment can exert the ability of safety protection and guidance, prolong the service life of the protected wires, cables, liquid and gas hoses, reduce consumption, and greatly improve the wires and cables of machine tools and mechanical equipment. , The distribution of liquid and gas hoses is messy, so that they are neatly and regularly arranged together, which can enhance the overall artistic modeling effect of machine tools and mechanical equipment.

How to reduce cable chain wear

First: Wrap the Cable chain

How to prevent the cable chain from wearing down the cable? The way to wrap the cable chain is very simple for many people. Install a winding tube in the place where we are more prone to wear and tear, and wrap the cable chain. It can most directly avoid the mutual wear between the cable chain and the cable. This method is simple to operate, but there is a problem of wear and tear of the winding tube and the cable. It will not work for a long time. Regular Replacing the winding tube, from a long-term perspective, is actually not simple.

Second: buy high-strength Cable chain

How to prevent the cable chain from wearing down the cable? Since it is impossible to prevent the mutual wear between the cable chain and the cable, then the quality of the cable chain should be upgraded. Cable chain. A high-strength cable chain has less mutual wear and tear with the cable. Although the price will be relatively high, from a long-term perspective, replacing a high-strength cable chain is to avoid the cable chain and the cable. The best way to wear each other out. And the high-strength cable chain itself is extremely stable, generally not damaged, and has a long service life. For the user, the long-term benefit of the high-strength cable chain seems to be better.

Caution when using Cable chain:

1. There should be 15% of the remaining space when selecting the model. The built-in cables, oil pipes, etc. can move freely, and there is no pulling force on the cable chain in the radial direction. Wires with large diameter differences should be laid separately, the weight should be evenly distributed, and if necessary, they should be separated by separators. When moving at high speed or high frequency, try to keep the wires separated from each other horizontally, and do not make them overlap each other. It is recommended to use separators when there are many cables, gas pipes, and oil pipes.

2. Inner height: choose the thickest one among the built-in cables, air pipes, oil pipes, and water pipes as the reference height, plus at least 10% of the height space as the inner height of the Cable chain. If it overlaps, the actual height after the overlap is used as the reference height.

3. Inner section: choose thicker ones - some cables, gas pipes, oil pipes, water pipes, etc., the sum of their outer diameters is used as a reference for the inner width of the cable chain, and at least 10% of the width space is reserved.

4. Bending radius: Select the largest bending radius among the built-in cables, gas pipes, oil pipes, water pipes, etc. as a reference value, and leave more than 10% of the space.
