When it comes to crane systems, cable carriers are almost always exclusively purchased as pre-assembled systems, or
readychains® The system is delivered directly to the site, saving considerable time. igus® can take care of the
installation itself, virtually eliminating the potential for errors. igus® has extensive experience installing readychain® including a ship-to-shore crane application in Malaysia with a travel distance of nearly 1,500 ft.
Rol-E-Chain cable carriers from igus are ideal for crane applications, as they can cope with travels over 2,600 ft (800 m) and speeds up to 33 ft/s (10 m/s). Additional drives or controls are not required and the weight is lower than any conventional
crane cable management system. Crane builders can save drive power for trolleys and system weight for crane girders.
