The e-chain® can travel safely the PVC-jacketed
steel rope. The underside the e-chain® links have guide
element the middle, that the energy chain can rest
safely the steel rope.
Alternatively, guidance via plastic rope profile also
possible..
autoglide Design principle
Energy and data transmission installed just hour
. Compared conventional standard solutions with
guide trough, tested installation approx.. autoglide elements ensure wear-
resistant and precise alignment the upper run the

Often saves two more other systems needed for transmitting data
Rope tensioning unit for
precise tensioning the
PVC-jacketed steel rope
Central guide element, enables
safe guidance autoglide 5
A clip-on glide wing ensures
safe e-chain® alignment over
the first few metres travel
Comb style injection moulded
autoglide crossbars prevent
the e-chain® from breakage
Very smooth running due to
the staggered run upper
and lower run due the
interlocking the tiewrap plates
Fixed-end module for
secure assembly
88% less assembly time compared aluminium trough1)
