The main link is broken

Cause 1

The deflection of the free span section caused (1) and (2) to result in excessive impact force.

  • (1) Deflection when moving backward from the maximum free span state (moving in the direction of the arrow in the diagram below)
    The bending moment acting near the bottom has been increased.
  • (2) Sliding resistance occurs due to contact between the inner surface of the link and the floor.
    The bending moment was amplified.

 Solution
  • A. There is a possibility that the capacity may be exceeded for the usage conditions, so reselect and change the size as necessary.
  • B. Install the support rollers.

*Please check here for applicable varieties.
Cause 2 The endurance life was reached during operation. Solution Compare the deflection of the free span section with the limit value (guideline), and if it reaches the limit value, replace it with a new one.

The cable is broken

Cause 1 The cable hose protruded to the inside and outside of Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) and interfered with peripheral equipment. Solution
  • 1. Install the partitions so that there is one per space in a horizontal row as much as possible.
    Store the cables and hoses.

  • 2. Adjust the cable/hose tension.

  • 3. To prevent cables and hoses from being pulled into Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) carrier,
    Secure the cable/hose at both ends of Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR).

Cause 2

The inner cable hose was crushed and excessive compressive force was repeatedly applied.

Cause 3 The load was applied because the bending radius radius of Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) was smaller than the allowable bending bending radius of the cable/hose. Solution Make bending radius of Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) larger than the allowable bending radius of the cable/hose.

The main link of Gliding arrangement model was broken.

Cause 1

There was a large difference in height at the joint between the rail along which the inner surface of Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) slides and Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) fixed end link.

This increased the sliding resistance when transferring from the rail to the fixed-end link.

 Solution

Eliminates the step between guide channel and Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR).

For details, please refer to Instruction Manuals.

Cause 2

The moving end and installation height of Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) were higher than our recommended values.

This caused an excessive bending moment to act on the free span section.

 Solution The installation height must be within our recommended range.
Cause 3 Dust and other particles accumulated on Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR) running surface increased the running resistance. Solution

Avoid dust accumulation.

  • 1. Install a cover to prevent dust from accumulating.
  • 2. Clean regularly.

4Cables and hoses get twisted and tangled inside Cable Carrier (CABLEVEYOR)
Cause 1

Dividers were not used to separate the cables and hoses.

 Solution Install partitions and store cables and hoses so that there is one cable per space as much as possible.
Cause 2 Since the cable was not used for transportation, the core wires were untwisted, causing the cable to become serpentine. Solution Highly flexible cable for mobility with excellent durability and ability to withstand repeated bending
- Use a hose.
