Application Examples for the E4.1 System

Robust, quiet, modular. E4.1 system - benefits of the proven E4 series. Inner heights: 21 to 350mm. Crossbars removable in inner and outer radii. High propulsive force on long travels and for large unsupported lengths. The E4.1 system is an e-chain series for almost all applications. Your advantages:

Easy to install and modular
Stronger than its predecessors with the same or smaller dimensions
Further increases the service life of your application while reducing costs

Typical industries and applications: Cranes, indoor cranes, composting plants, wastewater treatment plants, machine tools, general mechanical engineering, conveyor technology, refrigeration, construction machinery, wood processing, robotics and handling
