Series 14240 ESD

Here you can configure your e-chain system? individually. All entries and changes are taking over to the part list which is situated at the end of the page.

Series 14240 ESD chain, openable from both sides

E4/light ESD - low weight, large interior space and cost-effective. The system E4/light features appear in two places: a reduced thickness of the side links (for all types), and a thinner crossbar for series14240. E4/light e-chains? offer an optimum price/performance ratio for many applications. Especially for short travels, hanging and small standing applications. E4/light types are often first choice.

Typical industries and applications

Pick and place machines
Semi-conductor machines
Linear motors, actuators
Measuring equipment
Machine tools
General machinery, etc.

Available inner widths Bi: 50 to 200mm
Available bend radii R: 150 to 250mm
Pitch: 91mm/link = 11 links/m

When to use Series 14240

When a simple, inexpensive solution is required
When an optimal inner dimension/outer dimension ratio is required
If Series 400 is oversized

When not to use Series 14240

If a quiet model is required
Series E4.56
If large unsupported lengths are required for side-mounted uses
Series E4.56
When greater inner height is required
Series 15050

* The required clearance height is HF = H + 50 mm (at 2 kg/m fill weight), which should be observed in all types of applications. Please contact us if you have particularly confined space requirements.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

A=moving end, B=fixed end
Pitch: 91mm per link
Chain links per m: 11
Travel: S
Chain length = S/2 + K

Unsupported length

The unsupported length depends on fill weight
X axis: unsupported length in m FLB/FLG
Y axis: fill weight in kg/m
Lower scale: travel S in m
FLB = unsupported with permissible sag
FLG = unsupported with straight upper run

The diagrams for unsupported lengths apply to standard e-chains? made of igumid?GLW material. The values can also be used for assessing e-chain? applications in ESD special material. If the respective maximum unsupported length exceeds 80%, the suitability of the e-chain? should be verified by a practical test.

"Super-aluminium" trough - the igus? standard for guide troughs

The "Super-aluminium" trough is a modular system of guide troughs for long travels (where e-chains? glide on each other). The basic "Super-aluminium" trough is available in simple, cost-effective "basic designs" and can be expanded for sophisticated plant construction. This universal usability makes it the recommended igus? standard for guide troughs.

Various mounting options with bracket, clamping shoe, interface connectors
Side-mounted glide strips for wear protection on high-speed applications
Corrosion-resistant due to seawater-resistant aluminium
Flexible assembly - fastening on substructure independent of profile lengths and butt joints

Guide troughs are used for applications where the upper run of the e-chain? glides on the lower run. When using the igus? guide trough made of steel, the following components are required. Guide trough without glide bars part no. 94.30, guide trough with glide bars part no. 94.31, assembly sets as butt connectors part no. 94.50. XX
.XX indicates the length of the C-profiles on which the guide trough will be mounted. The standard length of the trough parts and glide bars is 2m. The required length of guide trough is determined by the travel length.
