All-round protection for lines and hoses

31 October 2012

Wood, metal or plastic chips entering into the cable space of cable and hose carriers can result in costly problems.

Carriers wear faster, the service life of the routed cables and hoses is shortened, and the availability of the entire machine is jeopardised. Addressing these issues, Tsubaki Kabelschlepp has developed the TKA55 cable and hose carrier, the all- round closed structure of which effectively prevents the intrusion of foreign bodies into the cable space, and allows for reliable protection right up to the connection area.

The compact new cover design fits seamlessly together and and reaches over the sidebands to form a compact, closed unit, which provides a secure hold even under severe stresses.

The smooth, dirt-repellent contour of the sidebands, with their encapsu- lated stroke system, prevents the intrusion of any foreign bodies. The covers can be opened and removed easily on the inside or outside to load the cable carriers. The interior of the TKA55 can be partitioned for even cable distribution.

The optimised geometry of the chain links and a triple encapsulated stroke system allows the TKA55 to span extensive unsupported sections. The integrated gliding surfaces make the cable carrier suitable for long travel lengths.
