3D Robotics Plastic Drag Chain

3D drag chain, also known as 3D universal cable chain, robotic drag chain  or round 3D cable carrier, is a cable and pipeline protection device designed for multi-axis industrial equipments. 3D energy chain perfectly adapts to 3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis, 6-axis and 7-axis industrial robots and collaborative robots(cobot ), including FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa, UR, DOBOT, Elite, AUBO, JAKA and ESTUN.

Outstanding features of cobot cable chain :

(1)ball-and-socket universal design ,each link achieves ±10° 3D rotation,supports horizontal bending, vertical swinging and torsional movement, perfectly fitting complex motion paths of 6-axis robots and  seven axis cobots .

(2)Snap-together links come in side-open and fully enclosed but openable styles for convenient wiring and maintenance

(3)Round Integrated Structure delivers uniform bending radius, eliminating local stress concentration on pipelines and greatly extending cable service life. openable robotic cable carrier's  round cross-section suits compact installation of robot dress packs

(4)Dedicated mounting end brackets and supports brackets ,flange mounting bases at both ends enable direct installation on industrial or collaborative robot bodies and end-effectors

Structure type of industrial robot cable drag chain :

(1) Side open 3D Robotic Cable Chain-Easy wiring and quick maintenance. However, the fasteners may loosen under high-frequency movement, so locking pins are required

(2)Fully enclosed openable cobot cable protection chain links with protection grade above IP54, resisting welding slag and dust intrusion. Wiring requires disassembling both ends, leading to inconvenient maintenance. Ideal for harsh working conditions with welding, dust and oil contamination.

Main Compatible Equipment for Ball‑joint drag chain :

(1)Industrial Robots /cobot :Six-axis welding robots,Palletizing robots,Handling / transfer robots,Cutting robots (including seventh‑axis traveling mechanism)

(2)Automation Equipment:Five‑axis simultaneous machining center,3D printing equipment,Packaging machinery,Spraying / coating equipment

(3)Special Equipment:Marine automation equipment,Underwater operation robots,Stage robotic arms
