SIVAplan GmbH & Co. KG relies on our energy supplies to reduce weight and assembly time. It uses the guidelok slimline P energy supply systems as readychains. This means that the e-chains are delivered ready to install with durable chainflex cables.

For a Cheetah SRU for automatic small-parts warehouses, the Gebhardt Intralogistics Group uses the autoglide 5 energy chain instead of a busbar system. The system has no guide trough and therefore saves space on the warehouse floor. It also requires less cleaning and no maintenance.

Where are our energy chains and cables used for horizontal or vertical travel in SRUs? Here is a selection of customer applications. We also show how our products are used in other areas of material handling such as in forklifts, AGVs and conveyor belts.
