Application examples with energy chains and cables
See how an igus® cable carrier system with a 1,447 ft (441m) travel is being used on two container cranes at a coal power plant in Malaysia.
Two heavy-duty plastic cable carriers from igus® supply the crane drive on this ship unloader.
World's biggest polymer energy chain: Being many times lighter than comparable steel chains it easily moves over 100 kg of filling per meter.
This OpenHydro tidal turbine uses cable carriers and continuous-flex cables for the electrical power supply generated using water.
This underwater boring machine is used in extremely demanding offshore environments and uses continuous-flex servo cables from igus®
This platform, which has been given the name “Ampelmann”, is used on the open sea.
E-Chain® Offshore Applications
Application examples with plastic plain bearings
iglide® G300 plastic bushings, DryLin® N linear slides and igubal® rod ends are used in this inspection device for an offshore drilling riser.
