Conversion of cable drag systems to energy chains
No more tangled cables
Overall, the conversion of cable carrier systems to energy chains offers a more efficient and safer solution for cable routing in dynamic applications, resulting in cost savings and greater operational safety.
KELLER offers you various complete packages, ranging from project planning to material provision and material replacement for existing systems. from project planning and material provision to material replacement for existing legacy systems.
In order to minimize the conversion time, these upgrade kits are usually equipped with pre-assembled energy chains, such as separators, cables and hoses.
Of course, the KELLER service team will take care of the installation or provide you with advice and expertise.

Energy chains - For the modern working world
When modernizing existing machine systems, KELLER not only focuses on state-of-the-art drive technology, but also on the connection to their energy supply, which is routed through energy chains, for example. Converting an existing cable drag system to an energy chain offers several advantages, particularly in terms of reliability, maintenance, flexibility and cable service life.
Key advantages
Increased operational safety
- Avoidance of cable entanglements
- Energy chains guide the cables in an orderly manner and avoid entanglements or crossovers that could lead to failures
- Protection against external mechanical influences
- Energy chains offer better protection against external influences such as dust and dirt
Longer service life of cables and hoses
- Protection against wear - energy chains offer better protection against abrasion and mechanical stress, which extends the service life of the cables and hoses they carry
- Reduced tensile and bending stress - energy chains are designed to minimize tensile and bending stress on the cables, resulting in a longer service life
Easier maintenance and inspection
- Modular design - energy chains consist of modular elements that can be easily replaced or serviced without dismantling the entire system
- Easier accessibility - cables are more easily accessible in the energy chain, making it easier to inspect or replace individual cables or hoses
- Structured cable routing - energy chains offer structured and tidy cable routing, which improves clarity and reduces the risk of errors during maintenance
Adaptability and clarity
- Flexibility and adaptability - energy chains can be easily adapted to different requirements and applications, e.g. using different dividers that allow cables and hoses to be routed individually
- Expansion options - energy chains can be extended or modified relatively easily to accommodate additional cables or hoses
Reduction of downtimes
- fewer failures due to cable breaks - As the energy chain protects and guides the cables better, there are fewer cable breaks and therefore less downtime
- Faster repairs - In the event of damage, repairs in an energy chain system are often quicker and easier to carry out than in a cable drag system, which reduces downtime and maintenance/repair costs. and further reduces maintenance and repair costs
