triflex® RSE – linear retraction system for TRC, TRE, TRCF

Retraction system for welding, riveting and assembly robots.

As robotic technology become more complex, the demands on the energy management systems are increasing. More and more often, not only electrical and pneumatic cables but also feed hoses for bolts, rivets and screws have to be routed on production robots. Since these hoses cannot cope with a small bend radius, the new triflex® RSE relies on very simple linear retraction system without deflection and no loops.

Linear movement without deflection or loops on the robot.

The purpose of the triflex® RSE retraction system is to hold the e-chain® to the robotic arm as closely as possible - this prevents the e-chain® from interfering with the robot's movements. The triflex® RSE is a particularly lightweight and cost-effective retraction system

• Available for triflex® sizes 40–125
• Shorter cable lengths, because there is no deflection
• Space-saving design
• Fewer deflection points, higher process reliability also for LLK and supply hoses

Typical application areas: Industrial robots with complex motion sequences, for laser light cables (LLCs), corrugated tubes, and supply hoses
