The drag chain test made out of our equipment certifies the cable capacity for bending along the chain path
The movement patterns are run wt drag chain through 
the classic trapezoidal course profile for reflecting the strain placed on the cable in the Customer's application. The cable is subject to bending motion through trolleys that run at high quickness on precision guides, driven by cogged belts. It is possible to check up to 4 chains at the same time with the same gear, with a pulling capability up to 3000 N
The test parameters (traversing distance, acceleration time, maximum speed and number of cycles) are adjustable and settable by means of a touchscreen panel. During the test cycle, the cables are checked by an external measuring system: in case of cable break, the corresponding counter stops and the device continues to use and test the remaining samples until their last break (this program can be modified according to the requirements).
All characteristics could be personalized according to Customer requests.
