Glide pads for energy chains on long travels


Friction and wear-optimised sliding elements and roller e-chains extend the service life of igus energy chains in gliding operation

For gliding energy chain applications, igus developed glide pads several years ago. These can significantly extend the service life of energy chain systems. This solution is recommended for travels between 1m/s and 3m/s.
 
  • Wear protection of the energy chain
  • Especially for gliding applications in environments with abrasive media
  • Easy to fit

Glide pads for energy chains

Gliding or rolling

Glide pads for energy chains versus roller energy chains

igus glide pads for energy chains are characterised as an economical alternative to the roller e-chain for the lower speed range between approx. 1m/s and approx. 3m/s.
 
Standard applications are equipped with gliding e-chains without glide pads or rollers. If such e-chains applications are equipped with glide pads, the service life expectancy can be increased. Depending on the application, a doubling of the service life can be achieved with igus glide pads. In comparison, a rol e-chain usually quadruples the service life expectancy. For highly dynamic plant with speeds above 3m/s, rol e-chains are the right and first choice.
 
Glide pads will not be able to provide the desired benefits in such systems; even glide pads with the best material composition will reach their limits.
 
For systems that run at high speeds and have to cope with high cable loads, roller energy chains are the only alternative.

Friction down - service life up

For over 50 years, igus has been developing plastic compounds for the production of plain bearings  and plastic energy chains. The aim of material development is to use ever new research to find materials that reduce costs and improve technology. An important factor is the durability of gliding plastic energy chains. From the very beginning, highly abrasion-resistant materials were used for the production of the e-chains. A little over 20 years ago, roller energy chains  were introduced and they continue to be developed.
Glide pads for energy chains from igus®
Tests with different material mixtures igus constantly performs tests in its own in-house laboratory under real-world conditions, including on the glide pads. With 10 billion e-chain cycles per year in the e-chains and chainflex test laboratory, an enormous knowledge of plastic energy chains has been built up over the years.
 
The glide pads refined by igus for energy chains optimise friction and wear at low to medium speeds and extend energy chain system service life in horizontally gliding applications.
