energy chain® for three-dimensional movement for robots - triflex® R

The multi-axis energy supply system triflex® R has been specially developed for the sophisticated 6-axis robotic applications in harsh industrial environments. As compared to a protective cable hose, the triflex® R system provides various benefits for moving applications, such as multi-axis industrial robots, in machine tools or for material handling applications.

Defined minimum bending radius for a cable- and hose-friendly guidance in moving applications.

High torsion stability and defined torsion stop

Modular design, can be shortened or extended freely

With fiber rod option

Easy installation

Simple filling

Available ex stock

Also available as a complete solution, incl. energy chain compatible cables
