Overhead charging cable management for DC and MCS charging points

Space-saving, safe and easy to use. High-power. Zero obstacles.

As an automated overhead cable guide system, the e-tract DC horizontal offers a technically outstanding solution for safe, protected and space-saving high-performance charging processes. Cable damage, collisions and maintenance costs are significantly reduced thanks to cable guide that is completely decoupled from the floor.

Areas of application:

Bus depots: Automated, secure multi-vehicle charging stations
Logistics centers & transshipment yards: High fleet availability with maximum operational reliability
Service stations & megawatt charging points: Infrastructure protection for frequently changing users
Port logistics: Safe and organized charging

e-tract DC Background

What is an e-tract DC horizontal?

The e-tract DC horizontal is an automated overhead cable guide system for high-performance DC and MCS charging cables, developed for electric lorries, coaches and buses. It enables safe, space-saving, and secure power transmission in demanding depot and charging infrastructures. It can be installed on trusses, canopies, hall ceilings or as a stand-alone system.

How does the e-tract DC horizontal work?

The charging cable is extended electrically and only lowered into the maneuvering area when required. When not charging, the cable is fully retracted into the system. The cable and its connections thus remain mechanically relieved, protected and insulated from the weather.

Technical advantages

No obstacles on the floor: Free from tripping hazards, collisions and the risk of damage. Cable protection & durable infrastructure: No contact points with the track, no dragging of the cable across the floor.
Space-saving design: Maximum space for manoeuvring - the charging cable disappears above the vehicle
Theft protection: The fully retracted cable is not accessible - ideal to combat the increasing theft of high-priced DC cables.
Flexible integration: Scalable for different loading bays, vehicle sizes and performance requirements.
