Guide cables on the jib crane to save space: find the right energy chain

How do I benefit from e-chains, cables and sensors compared to trailing cables?

Jib cranes are often required when the load lift of relatively small loads on mostly short travels does not justify the use of overhead cranes.
To guide the cables, energy chains are a good choice as they are quick to install and require little installation space on the crane girder. While trailing cables often hang down a long way on the crane girder when it is closed, the e-chain can increase operational safety thanks to its compact design. Combined with our chainflex cables for moving applications, energy and data can be guided reliably.
We can also ensure cable guidance on the jib crane for the trolley or the control system over travels of up to 10m.
With supplementary sensors on the energy chain, optional condition monitoring of the cable guidance can detect problems at an early stage and quickly warn of a failure in an emergency.
