3D-LINE – ROBOTRAXCable carriers for 3D movements

� For three-dimensional movements� Can be deployed on robots for swiveling

and rotational movements: The same system for robot feet and arms

� With channel system, it is a universal solution for rotary applications

� Also ideally suited for rotary tables� Optimum system for long service life of

the cables:– The minimum bend radius can be

maintained– The cables are cleanly isolated in three

separate chambers

Special plastic for long service life

Steel cable for transmission of extremelylarge tensile forces

Easy fastening onevery chain link withquick-opening moun-ting bracket possible

Open design– Fast cable laying by

simple pressing in of the cables – no threading through is necessary

– Simple inspection of allthe cables

Protective covers or heatshields made of differentmaterials are available fordifferent environmentalconditions

Impact protectionWhen a robot is moving, a striking of the ROBOTRAXagainst machine components often cannot be avoided. An impact protective device made of elastomer plastic can easily be attached to each link using a cable tie.

Heat shield/Protective sleeveHeat shield: The heat shield, made of aluminium-coated textile fiber, protects the cable carrier and the cables within from flying sparks. A heat shield is recommended where there are flying sparks.Protective sleeve: The protective sleeve made oflayered polyester offers protection against aggressivecutting and hydraulic oils as well as from fine dustsand paint sprays (not illustrated).

Chucking deviceThis can be used to set the steel wire to the desiredtension quickly and easily, and can be readjusted atany time.

Strain reliefFor securing the cables and hoses. (A strain relief device cannot be used on the sameend of the ROBOTRAX as a chucking device.)

Strain relief with LineFix saddle-type clampsLFR(for types R075, R085 and R100)For secure and gentle cable fixing.Multilayer strain relief with double and triple clampspossible. Multiple systems can also be mounted onebehind the other.

Active pull back mechanismRapid, repetitive movements of relatively long cablecarrier systems in large operating envelopes, con-stantly hitting the robot arm, are to blame for redu-cing the service life of the carrier and installed cables.This can lead to a failure of the overall robotic systemwith expensive downtime and production outages –system failure must be prevented.

Guidance holder� System failure due to cable carrier striking the

robot is avoided� Cable carrier glides back and forth through

holding device� Easy and time saving assembly and disassembly� Carrier can be quickly and easily opened or closed

for fast cable installation� Can be used in combination with standard holder� Available for all ROBOTRAX sizes

Yet one more degree of freedom on the fasteningpoints. The quick-opening mounting bracket can also rotate on a rotary plate, thus providing greaterflexibility when the robot is performing complexmovements.

Quick-opening bracket mounted on a rotary plate

If the bracket is mounted on a helical spring, it cangive elastically in all directions, swivel, swing out in 3 dimensions and spring back ito place again.
