e-spool® power

Lengths up to 25 m & more - with motor

The motor-driven e-spool® for long extension lengths of up to 25m (50m in project phase).
 
  • Long service life thanks to motorised retraction system
  • With a motor, longer travels can be implemented compared to a spring of a "conventional" e-spool®
  • Cable diameter up to 17mm
  • No tensile strain on the cables
  • No slip ring
e-spool power
  • Various media (electricity, data, fibre optics, air, liquids) can be guided in one system without interruption
  • For installation in the intermediate section of the ceiling - the system is "invisible"
  • Cables can be retrospectively added or changed
  • Maximum extension and retraction speed 1.2m/s


Typical application areas: Theatre and stage applications, (indoor) cranes, maritime, shipbuilding

Pilot product*

up to 50 m (standard 25 m) extraction length
 
*This product is in the launch phase of a series production (pilot series). We'd be glad to accept your ideas from all industries - from wood machinery, machine tools up to cleanroom applications, please contact us.

Filling guidelines for the e-spool

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

1. Cables may only be laid next to each other in the linear chain - never lay several cables on top of each other!
2. With unshielded cables, chainflex cables with TPE outer jacket should be used wherever possible.
3. Shielded cables should come from the chainflex cable family CFROBOT family.
4. The maximum bend radii of the twisterband used must be observed.
5. If possible, use separators to protect cables against overlapping and abrasion. To make the best possible use of the interior space, install the separator in alternate segments.
6. Lay cables according to diameter or insert bend radius - thin small ones inwards and larger ones outwards.
7. Apply strain relief to both ends of the cable. The cable tie knot must not be fitted in the direction of the chain.
8. The cables should be installed in the twisterband with clearance space both outwards and inwards from the rotary axis.

Installation instructions

In the case of a horizontally moving application, a smooth surface must be provided on which the energy chain can travel.
