The cable specialists at igus have also gained an insight: now they know that their cables are not only chain-suitable, but they have also proven to be effective in roller guides.At F-TEC we offer accredited Apprenticeship Training to the Lift Truck and Powered Access Industry. With this cable Still has found a solution for a task that arose through the changed geometry of lift frame and guide roller. The chainflex cables move under these conditions just like they move in many thousands of energy chain applications. In many applications the devices are in continuous use, which means that the lift frame is always in motion. There is no question that they are highly stressed. The decision was clear for the Still designers the cable was defined as the standard for the lift frame of the EK-X.A chainflex cable with cores wound in bundles and TPE jacket is used which are between 4.50 and 16 metres long in the order pickers. It was shown that the shape of the roller does not have an influence on service life.
All of these measures result in the fact that the forces occurring in the cable are minimized and the construction remains intact.Īlso the special materials of the jacket and its workmanship are significant additional aids for durability. To additionally support this stable braiding construction a jacket is extruded under pressure to supplementally guide the wires in the longitudinal direction. In appearance the result is highly reminiscent of a steel rope. This core element is not used as a filler, rather it is designed as a strain relief element. Thereby the cores are first wound in bundles, which in turn are braided with a small pitch length around a core element. Tests in the laboratories of both companies showed: The special chainflex cable structure with cores wound in bundles also works very well on the rollers. For example, the purchaser can choose from different cabs, lift masts, control panels and battery systems custom designed options are also implemented. The order pickers offer reaching heights of up to twelve meters, and thanks to the modular design principle, they are a perfect match for the specific application. Their task is to drive to pallets in the narrow aisles of a high bay warehouse, and then remove individual boxes.

Success for the customer: Long-lasting cable solution for sophisticated geometry of lift frame and guide rollerĪbout vertical order pickers: The vertical order pickers of the EK-X series are particularly impressive in the broad range of products offered by Still - the Hamburg-based company is part of the Kion Group - which in turn is the world's second largest manufacturer of forklifts with a turnover of almost 4.5 billion euros (2013).
