Selection table and design data for twisterchain guide troughs

New generation twisterchain guide troughs

Save installation time, costs - increase service life

With the type 01 Twister trough, complex adjustment work is kept to a minimum, reducing assembly time 6 hours to 2 hours. It also reduces noise, whilst travel speed and service life can be increased, thanks to its nearly all-plastic design. Available for all twisterchains from the new and original product range.

Suitable for high dynamics thanks to full guidance of the upper run
Much smoother and quieter motion of the twisterchain in the trough due to continuous guidance of upper run
Upper run guided in the plastic trough and supported over the full length
Fully harnessed delivery possible
Easy adjustment, alignment and handling
Assembly time reduced from 6 hours to 2 hours

A = upper run
B = lower run
Few components, simple handling - picture shows a 180° application

Simpler alignment on the robot due to defined angle grid and perforated grid for fixing the height
