The alternative to cable trolleys: energy chain systems

With cable trolleys, the cables hang unprotected on cranes in wind and weather. The cables themselves and the cable trolleys are exposed to varying temperatures as well as sand and salt (at outdoor facilities). The wind often lets the cables get tangled, which quickly results in downtime. igus offers a reliable and modular alternative to cable trolley systems on cranes, which helps you save cable length and avoid downtime. Energy, data, fibre optics, oil and air are safely managed in one system. More than 1,300 STS and over 6,500 RTG/RMG ASC cranes have been fitted with energy chains.

What is the difference between energy chain systems and cable trolleys?

We have compared energy chain systems and cable trolleys at a 100m plant:

Energy chain systems

Energy chain systems

In the solution with energy chains, the cables are fed into the e-chain in the middle of the travel. The e-chain is pushed or pulled halfway.


Cable lengths/space requirements
  • About 50% less cable (52m cable length with centre-fixed installations and approx. 100m travel)
  • Approx. 800mm system height
  • About 10% less structural steel (for the cable festoon)

Influencing the crane girder construction
No cable station required
Dynamic parameters
Rolling energy chains can be operated at a speed of over 600m/min and with an acceleration of over 2m/sec .
Secure cable guidance
Cables are safely guided in the energy chain and cannot get caught anywhere.

cable trolleys

Cable trolley systems

In a cable trolley system, the cables are attached at the end of the travel and the cable loops are pulled all the way by the trolley.


Cable lengths/space requirements
  • Approx. 115m cable (115% travel length) for 100m travel
  • About 3,500mm length for the "cable loops", system height approx. 5,000mm
     
     

Influence on the crane girder construction
Cable festoon is required
Dynamic parameters
Cable trolley systems reach their limits at speeds of 240m/min. and accelerations of more than 0.8m/sec.2 
Secure cable guidance
Cables hang uncontrollably and may get caught in the crane structure (e.g. by wind).

 


For maximum service life with optimised design - P4HD.56R heavy-duty rol e-chain

The new heavy-duty rol e-chain meets all the relevant requirements for container cranes of the next and future generations.Longer and longer travels, greater dynamics, short stress cycles, zero failures: in brief, this is what is demanded by the manufacturers of ship-to-shore container cranes for energy chains on the crane bridges. The new P4HD.56R fulfils these requirements - with maximum economy.
