twisterband Installation guide

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3 Mounting brackets

1. Insert twisterband between the steel parts.

2. Secure the twisterband by screwing the mounting bracket in place.

Guide shaft

Insert a centric shaft as a guide for vertical installation orientations starting at 1500° rotation angles.

Generally, insert a centric shaft as support for horizontal installation orientations.

Strain relief

Strain relief the cables on both ends
Ensure that the cable tie lock does not point in the direction of the energy chain

Final position:

The twisterband must not be twisted up to the end. To avoid excessive strain on the cables, a min. reserve of 90° must be planned in front of each mounting point.

Dimensioning: Cable selection
When selecting cables, pay particular attention to good abrasion and gliding properties. An ideal jacket material is TPE.
Recommendation: chainflex® cable CF9

Special shielded cables for the use in twisterband are in preparation. Please contact us if the use of shielded cables is essential

A = separate cables with crossbars

B = Insert cables sorted according to diameter or bending radius. Insert thin, small ones inward – then increasingly bigger ones outward.

C = Not more than two cables on top of each other. 10% of the larger diameter or a minimum of 1 mm between all cables

D = 10% of the larger diameter or a
minimum of 1 mm between all cables

E = 10% of the larger diameter or a
minimum of 1 mm between all cables and separators
