Cable solutions for extreme conditions and requirements.
Lighter, smaller, more versatile:
The requirements for cables in the crane.
Digitalization and automation are also progressing in cranes and conveyor systems. Many port facilities run fully automatically and increase the speeds at which goods have to be shipped and unloaded due to increasingly shorter handling times. For the wiring used, this means that they have to provide more and more functions and withstand environmental influences such as strongly fluctuating temperatures, high conveying speeds and aggressive, salty air.
Cranes and conveyor systems require extreme power and data cables. Not infrequently, arm-thick cables have to be wound up and unwound from reels and cable trolleys at several meters per second. Due to the increasing digitalization, hybrid cables are necessary to withstand harsh external conditions for a long time and safely transport large amounts of data. We have the know-how and broad portfolio to always offer the right solution.

PUR vs. rubber.
Especially when there are many functions in a reelable or festoon cable, it is essential to select suitable materials. The slimmed-down and halogen-free PUR variants of our TKD cables are even less sensitive to the extreme stresses for applications in reel operation, cable trolley operation, and drag chain operation, which pays off especially for cables with a particularly sensitive inner life.
Particularly in applications with increased fire risk, e.g., for industrial conveyor systems in the interior, attention should be paid to the use of halogen-free cables, which burn less intensely and do not produce toxic fumes.
In addition, the PUR cables with their high tensile strength are predestined for high accelerations, movements overall axes, and any amount of tensile forces. The cables convince the user with a weight reduction of up to 40 percent and significantly reduced outer diameters. Depending on the application, this can save a lot of space and money already during the system configuration.
Our product groups for cranes and lifting equipment.
A wide range of different cables is required for crane systems. In many cases, these are drum or drag applications, where cables with improved mechanical properties due to the type of drum application or fast cross travel speeds in drag and cable trolley operation are required.
Our REELTEC® PUR-HF and FESTOONTEC® PUR-HF have been specially developed for this application and are available in shielded and unshielded versions.
