Energy chain, cable and heavy-duty bearings for long service lives of crane systems

Chains for cranes: A customised and reliable solution can be found for every application scenario with the right energy chain. Heavy loads, long travel distances and extreme weather conditions are just a few of the challenges faced by crane systems: where there is also deadline pressure and safety must be guaranteed at all times, e-chain® is a reliable, low-maintenance and low-noise alternative to busbar systems, festooning and motorised drums. Whether in the hall or at the harbour, for bulk goods or container handling - all our products have been developed according to one motto: Tech up, Cost down!
