System triflex® R Series TRC.30

1. Multi-axis movement - High flexibility for complex applications even on the 6th axis. Rotation of approx. ± 10° per chain link possible in the longitudinal axis. This facilitates cable guidance around difficult geometric structures
2. High tensile force absorption due to the special "trailer design" (=ball/cup system), means smooth movements on all axes with a tested tensile strength of up to 50 N
3. Outstanding mechanical specifications - impact proof, dirt-repellent, tough, abrasion-resistant and swarf-resistant. Slides over edges while protecting cables due to smooth outer and inner contours. Tested for more than 1 million cycles in the igus® laboratory
4. Small bend radii and small pitch - for space-saving installation
5. Easy to assemble and disassemble - one injection-moulded component, requiring little effort to assemble. No load-bearing elements (e.g. steel cables,spring mechanisms, etc.) necessary for retraction
6. Extremely stable due to external stop-dogs, defined stops for radius and torsion
7. Minimise set-up times by very easy installation onto your machine/robot and a smart range of accessories

When to use Series TRC.30:

If a secure energy supply is required for multi-axis movements
If high torsion resistance is required
If the system needs to be easy to lengthen and shorten
If a small bend radius is required
If high tensile strength absorption is important
If a smooth and robust outer contour is required to avoid snagging

When not to use Series TRC.30:

For circular movements with high load
twisterchain® system
If an easy-to-fill option is required
triflex® R TRE system
When a less expensive, less sophisticated multi-axis solution is required
triflex® R TRL system
