KABELSCHLEPP offers a new retraction mechanism for ROBOTRAX cable carriers, which automatically adjusts the excess length of the cable carrier during shorter movements of the robot. For safe routing in the housing, the end of the 3D motion cable carrier is connected to a short element from the UNIFLEX Advanced series, which travels within the housing. This principle ensures that the length of the cable carrier constantly adapts to the robot’s work volume by adequately unwinding and winding, thus preventing impact on the robot arm. This also significantly increases the service life of the robotic system and reduces expensive downtime due to repairs caused by excessive wear.
