Energy supply systems for final vehicle assembly
Energy safely guided in light and robust e-chains
Final assembly provides the finishing touches in the production chain. But smooth processes are no less necessary here than at the beginning of production. Manipulators, which often assist people in manufacturing during this step, should be easy to move. Here, lightweight but tough energy chains made of plastic are just right. Supporting rollers allow even long distances to be covered easily and reliably in these applications.Success stories
10 years of success in handling systems
The handling systems of HUSCH Handhabungstechnik GmbH place the highest demands on quality, reliability and flexibility. For over 10 years, our systems have been moving our plastic energy chains, but also linear and rotary bearing products. Used in the automotive industry, for example, they enable long service lives, robustness and freedom from maintenance.
Roller energy chains for highly dynamic loading linear robot
A customer in the automotive industry was looking for a linear robot with a long service life for machining their workpieces. The linear robot used by GROB-Werke works highly dynamically at a speed and acceleration of 6m/s in each case. For this reason, the manufacturer relies on our reliable and wear-resistant roller energy chains in their application.
Flexible and resilient slewing ring bearings in assembly supports
In its assembly line, a car manufacturer relies on our iglidur slewing ring bearings for a total of 60 assembly supports. The requirements were high. As a result, every assembly support allows pivoting, rotating and sliding application. They should also be equipped with bearings that are as light as possible and function permanently free of maintenance and lubrication under high and constant loads.
