Guidelok horizontal - Metal chips are a problem especially in machine tools for long travels, when the e-chain® must be used in the gliding mode. igus® Guidelok is a cost-effective solution here.
Guidelok vertical - Guidelok vertical offers a simple, cost-effective and reliable system solution for vertical applications combined with arising shear forces!
Typical industrial sectors and applications
Horizontal: Machine tools, applications in the chip area
Vertical: Elevators, inclined hoists, shelf access equipment, material handling equipment, etc.
Overview of Guidelok applications:
"Fast" energy supply system for high-performance SRM
Storage and retrieval systems with innovative drive concept that supports previously unattained dynamics and offers many other benefits.
Due to the relatively high dynamic values, a guidelok slimline F was used for the safe guiding of the energy chain in this storage and retrieval machine with a lifting height of 6 meters.
Storage and Retrieval Units for High-Bay Warehouses
igus® energy chains are used in the storage and retrieval units of the company viastore systems in Stuttgart due to their operational reliability, even more noise reduction and lower material costs.
