Guidelok slimline P for less weight and more
dynamics saves up to 80 percent of the cost
To be able to always achieve faster
accelerations and speeds in aisle travels, igus has developed an energy chain
supply system completely made of plastic. This is characterised by low weight
and moreover, easy installation.
Visitors to the igus stand at the Hanover Fair in Hall 17 can experience
this innovation and more "motion plastics".
igus has advanced its guidelok slimline
system once again and now presents the new GLSL-P, which is entirely made of
plastic. The guide system for hanging energy chain applications does not
require an enclosed channel trough or other elaborate, expensive enclosures and
holds the energy chain system as in aisle travels on the railway. Instead,
lightweight plastic segments are mounted only every two metres, which saves up
to 80 percent trough costs and also weight compared to the previous metal
option. Therefore, even faster speeds and accelerations can be achieved.
Another advantage of the plastic novelty is that vibrations are absorbed
better. "The lightweight guide rails made of fibreglass can easily be
plugged into the plastic segments of GLSP-P, hence, implementing the
installation completely without tools, leading to a reduction in costs yet
again," explains Christian Strauch, industry manager for materials handling
at igus.

Secure
hold for energy chain system
Two automatically actuated compensators
in the segments of the guidelok slimline P fix the e-chain and ensure a quiet,
smooth run. If the chain moves in the radius through the segment, the
compensator is activated and fixes the energy chain. The innovative locking
levers are complemented by open guide rails made of reinforced plastic between
the segments, which allows for more dynamics.
