e-spool® with manual pull out cable

The e-spool® SPC1-300-5000-01-R-0 was specifically designed for applications in which only one cable will be pulled out by hand, for example, for control panels or wired tools. To relieve the load on the cable permanently, an indexing mechanism has been integrated into the e-spool®, which functions very similarly to a vacuum cleaner cable. Consequently, this e-spool® is also suitable for manual operation.

Benefits:

  • Retract a chainflex® cable directly
  • Also for media and air tubes
  • The e-spool with manual pull-out was developed for applications where only one cable is pulled out manually. For example, a worker can extend the cable for a control panel or a corded tool to the required length and have it rewound compactly after use. To ensure that the cable is not energized all the time, a latching mechanism has been installed. Similar to a vacuum cleaner cable, the extension length can be locked. Cable lengths of up to 5 m can be implemented.
    • Compact, space-saving, spring-driven cable reel without slip ring
    • Integrated latching mechanism to prevent unwanted rewinding (very similar to a vacuum cleaner cable)
    • Also for media and air hoses
    • Handle with connection option and strain relief for the cables

Typical applications: Robots, Cable-connected tools, control consoles, workstations, assembly lines

Filling rules for the e-spool® with manual pull out cable

Due to the special mechanical stress in an e-spool, we recommend using our chainflex cables. In addition, we recommend adhering to the following filling rules:

1. In the linear chain, cables must only be placed next to each other - never lay several cables on top of each other!
2. In the case of unshielded cables, chainflex cables with a TPE outer sheath should be used if possible.
3. Shielded cables should come from the chainflex cable family, CFROBOT family.
4. The maximum bending radii of the twister belt used must be adhered to.
5. If possible, protect cables with dividers to prevent them from rolling over and abrasion against each other. To make the best possible use of the interior space, install the divider alternately in segments one behind the other.
6. Insert cables sorted by diameter or bending radius - insert thin, small, inwardly and outwardly increasing larger ones.
7. Relieve tension at both ends of the line. The cable tie knot must not be mounted in the direction of the chain.
8. The cables should be laid in the twisterband in such a way that they have some distance/space reserve both outwards and inwards to the axis of rotation.

Installation instructions

In the case of a horizontal application, a smooth surface must be provided on which the energy chain can move.
