The drag chain test made with our equipment certifies the cable capacity for bending along the chain path
The movement patterns are run through the classic wt drag chain trapezoidal course profile for reflecting the strain placed on the cable in the Customer’s application. The cable is certainly subject to bending movement through trolleys that operate at high acceleration on precision guides, powered by cogged belts. You’ll be able to test up to 4 chains simultaneously 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 cycle, the cables are examined by an external measuring system: in case of cable break, the corresponding counter stops and the device continues to use and test the remaining samples until their last break (this program can be modified according to the requirements).
All characteristics can be personalized according to Consumer requests.
