Cable slip line working principle selection precautions

Speaking of cables, you will certainly not be unfamiliar. In the industry and some high-current equipment, cable power is often used. Do you know about cable slip lines? Cable slip lines are also called cable slides and safety slide lines. It is used in mobile power supply and signal transmission systems for lifting and transporting machinery such as port terminals and railway freight yards.

How cable slips work

The product consists of a flat cable, a four-wheeled trolley for carrying cables and a guide roller. The flat cable adopts non-flame-flammable material, which can be used indoors and outdoors and in contact with oil stains. It has certain weather resistance, and has the advantages of small bending radius and long service life compared with round cable.

The rolling pass adopts cold-rolled steel plate once cold-drawn forming to ensure the accuracy of the track section size, which replaces the unsafeness of angle steel and other conductive methods, the weight is large, the indoor sliding line is dusty, and the outdoor icing causes short circuit, which affects the shortcomings of use. It has the unique characteristics of the country. The track unit length is 4~6m and the coupler connector is used, which can be extended to any length as needed.

Cable slip installation

The beginning of the flat cable (connected to the field junction box) is fixed on the starting fixture of the rolling guide, and then fixed to the four-wheeled trolley carrying the cable in turn according to the space allowed by the site, with an appropriate length (1-2.5mm). The cable end (power supply) is set on the last trolley (tractor). Pulling the car through the pull-up on the car to reciprocate, through the cable dragging (such as the length of the cable should be considered for the original traction rope, so that the cable is not pulled), driving all the cars to freely slide at any speed in the rolling tunnel, the rail installation Simple, no need to debug, and contactless contact power supply, safe and reliable.

Cable slip line selection precautions

1, track length (m)

According to the actual running distance of the vehicle, it is determined by the user statistics, and the distance between the four-wheeled trolley is also stored.

2, cable length (m)

Actual running length + storage trolley distance + to the length necessary for the appliance and junction box.

3. Number of four-wheeled trolleys

Generally, it is 1/2 of the total length of the track. The user can increase or decrease the number of four-wheeled trolleys according to the allowable cable sagging space.

4, the number of coupling connectors:

According to the total length of the track, accessories are required for more than 4m track.

5. Number of other accessories:

The number is based on the number of mobile vehicles, and is counted by the user. Generally, each vehicle requires a set of accessories, each of which includes:

Rail stop: 1 piece

1 piece of cable fixing part at the beginning of the guide rail

1 frame of the carriage (moving car)

After a brief introduction of the above content, everyone should have a more detailed understanding of the cable slip line. During the use, it should be noted that due to the mobility of the cable slide, the outer protective layer is easily damaged, resulting in cable slip. The service life is reduced, so it should be cleaned and maintained regularly, which can improve its service life and reduce the cost of use. Cable slips are usually made according to requirements, so they should be purchased according to their actual needs. I hope the above content will help everyone.
