How to choose the right plastic energy chain?

According to the structure, engineering plastic drag chains can be divided into bridge plastic energy chains and fully enclosed plastic energy chains; According to the model, it is divided into small energy chains, general energy chains and large energy chains; According to the noise figure, it can be divided into ordinary drag chains and silent drag chains; According to the form, it can be divided into ordinary drag chain, parallel drag chain, S type drag chain; According to the raw material, it is divided into original packaging plastic and recycled plastic. So how do you choose the right plastic energy chain? Suzhou Gamari is summarized as follows:

First, the selection principle of plastic drag chain: high: choose the built-in cable.

The thickest one of the oil pipes, gas pipes, water pipes, etc., is used as the reference height. Plus at least ten percent of the height space as the inner height of the e-chain®. If the cable tubing, gas pipe, water pipe, etc. need to overlap, the actual height after overlapping shall be used as the reference height.

3. Bending radius: select the built-in cable; The bending radius in the oil pipe, gas pipe, water pipe, etc. is used as the test value, and more than 10% of the space is left.

There should be 15% of the remaining space for the built-in cables, oil pipes, gas pipes, water pipes, etc. of the cable chain, so that the built-in cables, oil pipes, etc. can move freely, and there is no tension on the cable chain in the radius direction. Conductors with large differences in diameter should be laid separately, evenly distributed in weight, and separated by separators if necessary. When running at high speed or high frequency, try to separate the wires from each other horizontally, do not make them overlap each other, and it is recommended to use separators when there are many cables, gas pipes, oil pipes, etc.

1) The shape of the line chain is similar to that of a tank chain, which is composed of many unit links, and the links rotate freely.

2) The inner height, outer height and pitch of the same series of line e-chains® are the same, and the inner width and bending radius r of the line e-chain® can be selected differently.

3) The unit chain link is composed of the left and right chain plates and the upper and lower cover plates, each section of the guard drag chain can be opened, easy to assemble and disassemble, no need to thread, after opening the cover plate, you can put the cable, oil pipe, gas pipe, water pipe, etc. into the guard drag chain.

2.Bend radius: When choosing a plastic e-chain®, it is necessary to consider the required bending radius of the e-chain®. If the bending radius of the spine is too small, the e-chain® is easily damaged, resulting in the equipment not working properly.

3.Length: When choosing a plastic energy chain, you need to consider the required length. An energy chain that is too long or too short will affect the effectiveness of the equipment, and it is necessary to choose the right length according to the actual needs.

4.Environmental adaptability: When choosing a plastic energy chain, environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, chemicals, etc. need to be taken into account. If the use environment is too harsh, it is necessary to choose plastic materials with corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.

5.Protection class: If you need to protect equipment such as cables and wiring harnesses, you need to choose a plastic energy chain with a degree of protection. Different levels of protection can protect the equipment to varying degrees.

6.Installation method: It is necessary to choose different types of plastic energy chains according to the actual installation method, such as vertical, hanging, horizontal and other different installation methods.

Before using the drag chain, pay attention to the choice of the drag chain model, which is the choice of the inner height, inner width and the radius of the bending of the sail car, and try to leave enough space for stability.

When choosing a plastic energy chain, you need to consider the following aspects:

Working environment: plastic energy chains are suitable for some relatively clean environments, such as electronics, medical, food and other industries. If the working environment is harsh, such as high temperatures, corrosion, heavy loads, etc., it is recommended to use metal e-chains®.

Direction of movement: When choosing a plastic energy chain, you need to consider the direction of movement of the energy chain, whether it is unidirectional or multi-directional. If the e-chain® needs to move in more than one direction, it is advisable to choose a plastic e-chain® that can withstand multi-directional movements.

Workload: When choosing a plastic energy chain, you need to consider the workload that the energy chain will be subjected to. If the load is heavy, it is advisable to use a plastic energy chain with a high load model.

Life requirements: When choosing a plastic energy chain, the life requirements of the energy chain need to be considered. The service life of some high-grade plastic energy chains can reach hundreds of thousands of times, while the service life of some low-grade plastic energy chains may only be tens of thousands of times.

Therefore, when choosing a plastic energy chain, it is necessary to choose according to the actual life requirements.

Size and length: When choosing a plastic energy chain, the size and length of the energy chain need to be taken into account. Different applications require different sizes of plastic energy chains, so it is important to choose the right model for your application.

Protection level: When choosing a plastic energy chain, you need to consider the protection level of the energy chain. If the e-chain® needs to work in harsh environments, such as dust, moisture, etc., it is necessary to choose a plastic e-chain® with a high degree of protection.

**: When choosing a plastic energy chain, you need to take into account**. Different models and brands of plastic e-chains® are different** and need to be selected according to the actual situation.

1。The inner height of the plastic e-chain®, which is the larger of the lines and pipes protected before the filial piety sail, is determined by adding at least 15% of the activity space.

2. The inner width is the sum of the diameter of the line and the pipe to be protected, and 15% of the activity space is added. In order to determine the inner width of the car travel chain.

3.The bending radius is determined by the bending of the guard, the curvature of the tube or the installation height of the moving and fixed ends of the plastic e-chain®.

As the name suggests, plastic e-chains® are a type of e-chain®. According to the structure, it can be divided into bridge plastic drag chain and fully enclosed plastic energy chain; According to the model, it is divided into small energy chains, general energy chains and large energy chains; According to the noise figure, it can be divided into ordinary drag chains and silent drag chains; According to the form, it can be divided into ordinary drag chain, parallel drag chain, S type drag chain; According to the raw material, it is divided into original packaging plastic and recycled plastic.
