Frequently observed problems with pure steel energy supply systems:
Save weight and money:
Plastic outer side links provide weight reduction and quick assembly.
Steel inner side links provide increased strength and longer unsupported spans.
Ideal strength to weight ratio carrying heavy loads over a long span with compact dimensions and the lowest possible weight.
Multiple widths available from 50mm - 400mm inner width. Crossbars can be removed along the inner and outer radius.
Standard interior separation available from the proven igus E4 modular system.
Steel mounting brackets with attachment points from top, bottom, or front.
In a side-by-side comparison at the igus test lab, the igus YE.42 plastic + steel series was evaluated against the igus E4.42 all plastic series. The two series were loaded with 2kg/m fill weight. The YE.42 provided an 87% longer unsupported span of 5.25 meters (17.23’) compared to the E4.42 of 2.8 meters (9.18’).
The YE.42 series was also 50% lighter than a comparable all steel cable carrier with a similar unsupported span.
