Reclaimer / Bucket wheel excavator

The energy transmission systems often used in the classic way can often be advantageously replaced by e-chain systems, both for new equipment and for overhauling existing stackers and reclaimers. Possible advantages here are

• Simultaneous transmission of different media
• Continuous connection of fibre optic cables or wired data connections
• Minimal maintenance effort
• Shorter cable lengths
• Low space requirement (no cable station)
• Insensitive to weather influences

Rotary energy supply systems from igus solve a wide variety of circular movements. Rotation angles of up to 900° have been realised to date. Please ask us about your specific case.

Circular movements require less height. The e-chains usually glide on surfaces made of plastic, stainless steel or steel and are guided in a circular motion by guide plates. Bend radii, circle radii and chain widths are variable.
