2 21 Going Further Horizontal Applications on Their Sides Brevetti Stendalto cable chains can be mounted on their sides. Particular attention should be drawn to determine the section of the cable chain, in fact, the mounting on it’s side of the chain means that cables/hoses have a tendency of bunching towards the ground and being squashed. To avoid this, there are special spacers which are positioned between the separators or otherwise special split aluminium or PVC cross pieces to be applied. For particularly long applications a guiding channel can be designed. This kind of mounting becomes necessary when there is a limited space upwards and mounting the chain normally would take up too much space. If there is no possibility for a plane to support the cable chain during it’s movement, Brevetti Stendalto chains can be applied without support taking into consideration the following factors: - total travel distance LS - added weight - velocity and acceleration - frequency of usage For this kind of application, it is recommended to discuss with our technical office. To make the movement easier and to reduce any friction on the cable chain, special changeable anti-friction skids or pivoting wheels have been designed.
