Frequently asked questions

We only have a small amount of installation space – can you still find a solution?

Movement profiles can be fully adjusted to your application’s environment. Thanks to our huge range of standard chains, you can conduct initial function tests and review the spatial conditions.
We help you to fine tune the system and can work with you to jointly develop a concept in line with your specifications and under consideration of technical performance limits.

An additional energy supply system is far too heavy, isn’t is?

Adapting your application with a focus on weight reduction is one of our service aims. We do not plan systems with a single gram too many. Different materials or geometries can be jointly developed to this end.

Do you also supply complete systems?

We also work in cooperation with our development partners to create complete systems in line with customer requests.
Our internal development and toolmaking departments enable us to respond to changes quickly and professionally.

How much noise is generated?

The continuous further development of our chains makes our systems ever quieter while our adapted end stop brakes optimise the noise levels of the chain links during radial running (< 60 dbA).

What is the service life of your systems?

The service life of our chains can be calculated using our online calculation tool.
 
Our chains are designed to withstand high alternating loads and are wear resistant thanks to our tribopolymers.
 
All chains are subjected to comprehensive testing in our internal test laboratory. The results are used to expand our calculation database.
