The drag chain test made out of our equipment certifies the cable capacity for bending along the chain path
The movement patterns are run through the classic trapezoidal course profile for reflecting the strain put on the cable in the Customer’s application. The cable is certainly subject to bending motion through trolleys that operate at high velocity on precision guides, driven by cogged belts. It is possible to check up to 4 chains at the same time with the same devices, with a pulling capacity up to 3000 N
The test parameters (traversing distance, acceleration time, optimum speed and number of cycles) are adjustable and settable through a touchscreen panel. Through the test routine, the cables are checked by an exterior measuring system: in the event of cable break, the corresponding wt drag chain china counter stops and the device continues to use and test the remaining samples until their final break (this program can be modified based on the requirements).
All characteristics can be personalized according to Client requests.
