Machine tools and machining centres generate large quantities of various, sometimes hot, chips, metal particles or emulsions that can damage cables and hoses. In the worst case, this type of damage can cause the entire production process to fail. TSUBAKI KABELSCHLEPP's solid plastic TKA cable carriers with their particularly tight design reliably protect cables from dirt, chips and splash water and prevent problems such as the ingress of coolants and lubricants. With the encapsulated lifting system and pin/hole connection, even large quantities of atomised oil and ejected particles are no longer a problem when cleaning the work area. This particularly high level of protection for the installed cables and hoses right up to the connection area has been tested to IP54 and confirmed by TÜV NORD for type TKA55 with Bi 50 - 175 mm.
Reliable guiding over extensive unsupported lengths
Other key features of the TKA range include optimised link geometry, high torsional rigidity and a triple stroke system that allows long unsupported lengths. The cover, which can be easily opened from the side in any position, and the particularly smooth and dirt-repellent surface facilitate maintenance. Horizontal and vertical dividers allow for optimal use of the carrier's interior.
The TKA series of closed cable carriers is available with a pitch of 30, 38, 45 and 55 mm and various internal widths between 15 and 250 mm. The internal height is between 20.5 and 45 mm. Depending on the application and type, the TKA allows unsupported lengths of up to 6.5 m and travel lengths of up to 150 m for gliding applications. Additional loads of up to 15 kg/m and travel accelerations of up to 50 m/s² can be achieved depending on the application.
