The upper trough of these cable carriers glides on its lower trough (in case of long lengths), and after passing the fixed point it glides on the sliding surface of the channel. The design ensures no-slipping situations, is highly durable, and operates in silence. Versions include steel plate guide channels with a one-sided cable carrier arrangement, or an opposing arrangement. A special gliding plate can be glued on for minimizing gliding resistance. The use of special gliding plates at speeds over 0.5 m/s and with frequent travel cycles is recommended, the guide channels can be modified for your specific needs.
