By developing new plastic compounds, igus ® was able to further optimise theP4systemandsignificantly increase reliability andsystemavailabilitywith theP4.1 rol e-chain ® . There is a bearing point in every connection of the e-chain ® links. This has nowbeen equipped with maintenance-free plain bearings, which more than doubles the service life. Optionally an intelligent wear sensor ensures a longer service lifeof theP4.1 for craneand linear robot systems. Due to the o ff set between upper run and lower run, the plastic rollers are not rolled over, but roll past each other to allow very smooth running. As a result, the coe ffi cient of friction decreases and the drive power is reduced by 57%. ● less friction, twice the service life ● Travel lengths of 1,000m and more are possible ● For travels at speeds up to 10m/s ● Inner height: 56mm and 80mm Typical industries and applications ● Crane equipment ● Automated storage and retrieval systems ● Plant construction ● Gantry robots ● Material handling Technical data Speed gliding ≤ 10 [m/s] Acceleration gliding ≤ 50 [m/s 2 ] igumid G material, permitted temperature °C -40°C/+120°C Flammability class, igumid G VDE 0304 IIC UL94-HB
