Pre-Assembled Drag Chain Systems Ready to Install

Fitting cables into a drag chain by hand takes time, and getting it wrong shortens the life of everything inside it. AP Technology builds pre-assembled drag chain systems that arrive complete, tested and ready to bolt on to the machine. They are suited to machine tools, gantries, handling systems and robotics. Cable layout, separators and strain relief all influence the life of the chain, so designing and building the whole system as a single unit makes a lot of sense. Each job starts by understanding the application, then gathering the data needed to meet its electrical, environmental and approval requirements. You receive a drawing and data sheet to check before the quotation is submitted, so everyone is working from the same design. If it helps, a member of the team can visit to discuss the application in more detail. With over 750 cable types in stock and large stocks of popular connector styles, including an in-depth profile of M17, M23, M40 and M58 connectors, AP Technology can match the right cable to the right connector and deliver a 100% tested assembly on a fast turnaround.

It suits urgent one-off demands as well as long term call-off requirements. Interconnect problems rarely stop at one component. Because AP Technology supplies cable, connectors, glands and finished assemblies under one roof, it can look at the whole connection and not just one part of it. That is useful when a change to cable diameter affects the gland, or a different connector changes how the assembly should be built.

Drawings, samples or an old part number are all a good place to start.
