1.2 P itch and inner height as characteristic parameters for cable carriers
Pitch and inner height are essential components of application-specific solutions. Depending on the installation space of your application, these have to be configured individually. The chapter “Cable carriers” from page 14 offers an overview of the configuration options, depending on the cable carrier type.
A cable carrier can be deflected at a defined bending radius (KR). A reverse bending radius (RKR) is the formation of a radius (preferably on the drive end of a cable carrier) in the opposite direction to the actual KR of the remaining cable carrier. This option is used, for example, to reduce the cable carrier drive arm height at the moving end. This version is used for gliding cable carriers with long travel lengths, among other applications. Depending on the cable carrier type, we offer standardized models with so-called GO modules. The cable carrier can also be deflected in both swivel directions (KR/RKR), e.g. for circular arrangements. 1.3 Explanation of KR and RKR as well as KR/RKR
