Less of a drag
An energy management system that tackles the problem of data and energy chain breakages has been expanded by the addition of an emergency decoupling system.
Since energy and data management conduits have to be dragged over the distances of crane travel, Kabelschlepps innovative RCC cable carrier system answers the associated wear and tear through ball bearing castors running in support troughs.
Further, the new decoupling system stops the main chain while the emergency chain travels on, taking up the high forces generated by momentum – making for safety and reduced downtime.
