Applications of Cable Drag Chain
Cable Drag chains are used to guide, support and protect the Electric cables, hoses and hydraulic lines when in motion. Without drag chains, the potential for these to become tangled or damaged would be high.
- Port Cranes.
- Green energy systems.
- Machine tools.
- Process and automation equipment.
- Vehicle transporters and washing systems.
- Robotics.
FAQ's - Cable Drag Chain / Cable Carrier System
A cable drag chain, also called a cable carrier, drag chain, or energy chain, is a protective mechanical system used to guide and support a moving electric cable or hose that moves back and forth with the machinery. This polymer-based chain is connected to the drive, and the cable runs through it. The chain takes all the forces during movement and prevents the cable from tangling, bending, or wearing out prematurely, ensuring smooth and safe operation in dynamic environments.
Selecting the right cable drag chain depends on several factors, including the type and number of cables or hoses, required bending radius, travel length, operating speed, load conditions, and the working environment. At Kumbhojkar Plastics, we offer a wide range of cable drag chain sizes and configurations designed for light-duty to heavy-duty applications. Our team analyzes your machine requirements and recommends the most suitable drag chain to ensure long service life, smooth cable movement, and reliable performance.
Our cable drag chains are made from high-quality industrial-grade glass reinforced engineering polymers, offering excellent resistance to wear, chemicals, and high temperatures. These materials ensure long service life even under demanding industrial conditions.
Yes, cable drag chains can be customized to match your exact application requirements. We offer multiple models in various sizes designed to handle different loads, travel lengths, bending radii, and operating environments. Whether you need a compact drag chain for limited space or a heavy-duty cable carrier for demanding industrial use, our team can guide you in selecting the ideal cable drag chain from our wide product range to ensure optimal performance and long service life.
Our drag chains are widely used across industries such as CNC machining, robotics, automation, packaging, and material handling, 3D printers, Laser cutting & Laser Engraving machines, cranes & elevators — anywhere cables or hoses require guided motion in a moving system.
Types of Kumbhojkar Plastics make Cable Drag Chain We offer open type drag chains which allows easy insertion for cables & better protection. Also we have Snap open type drag chains which allow easy removal of top or bottom links and insertion of cables/ hoses leading in saving the installation time. Another type is Cross Bar links which again offer similar advantages as to snap open with increased strength for long travel and heavy-duty applications.
