Energy chains in container handling

E2.1 – For empty container handlers and spreaders

In the medium load range of industrial trucks such as container handlers or spreaders, we often recommend E2.1 energy chains. The highly stable and space-saving systems are particularly easy to fill with cables and are perfectly suited for long-lasting outdoor use. The service life has been further increased by the further developed design compared to its predecessor, the E2/000 energy chain. This makes the E2.1 energy chain an all-rounder in the medium load range.

E4.1 – For reach stackers and straddle carriers

In the basic version, the E4.1 energy chain offers high stability with small dimensions and is therefore suitable for long-lasting use on straddle carriers and reach stackers in container handling. Certainty is also provided by the daily stress and endurance tests that the E4.1 and other energy chains are subjected to on an area of 2,147 m² in our in-house test laboratory. In addition, the E4.1 is always rust-free and easy to maintain when used outdoors. The system can also be modularly expanded for special requirements: sliding shoes for particularly abrasive conditions or rollers for high speeds or long travels.

Cables for container handeling

In port operations, lines are severely strained. In industrial trucks that operate continuously at container terminals, they will often be on the move around the clock. To ensure that there are no wire breaks and that the cables achieve the longest possible service life, we test all our chainflex® cables extensively in advance in our in-house test laboratory with a total area of 3,800 m². All our cables are also UV-resistant, come with a UL-certified version and receive a flat-rate warranty of up to 4 years.​​​​​​​
