Shift Chain can set up the range of Bending Radius easily & freely!
  A
Shift Chain, with the unique structure, is a new concept that the value of Bending Radius is decided by inserting the BR component.
  B
Shift Chain, inserting the BR component, has more than 6 points of supporting area, so its durability and self-supporting capacity are 30% more than other Cable chain's.
  C
Shift Chain has an excellent competitiveness and can create the maximum synergy effect in relation to boosting productivity, the efficient stock management and cost reduction because the side-band of each model is the same and the BR component is designed to be replacable.
  D
Shift Chain is the next generation Cable chain developed to protect the inner cables and hoses applied to equipments and machinery of overall industries widely.
CHARACTERISTIC AND MERIT OF SHIFT CHAIN
 

1 Longer Self-Supporting Length!

Shift Chain has max 30% longer self-supporting length than other CPS chains under the same condition. It's designed to be durable, even with the massive inserted cables, can effectively protect cables without any sagging. while other chain has two points of supporting area, Shift Chain has six points of it, A, B, C, D, E, F. It helps the side bands can have the maximum supporting.

2 The Feature of Setting-up Unit 2 for Bending Radius!

Unlike the existing chains, the Shift Chain is designed to use only one side band for the same model and to insert respective Bending Radius unit to make bending radius each. Like the below pictures, the value of bending radius is changeable just by inserting individual bending unit, and unlike the existing chains, it is suggested that you don't need side bands for each bending radius in stock, but need BR unit for each bending radius, so the Shift Chain has an excellent competitiveness to create the maximum synergy effect in relation to easy maintenance, efficient stock management and cost reduction .
The Bending Radius combined by the Bending Radius unit(BR).

When combining Side Band with the different Bending Radius unit, the bending radius of
cable chain is formed like the below and also the 'R' of cable chain will be decided by the
Bending Radius-setting unit. Bending Radius(R) of each cable chains is written with each
value of " R" in details of each cable chain.

3 Efficient & Easy fixing bracket, FEB!

Shift chain's bracket, FEB, is very effective in a way that can be mounted up, down and front side same as the New Sabin chain. For the extra enhance, steel washer is inserted into the fixing hole.

4 Teeth centered every 5mm eliminate movement during operation!

With teeth positioned every 5mm, Shift Chain's patented grooves grip the dividers locking them in place and eliminating any left or right movement during operation. Furthermore, your cables are protected from the shock of outside force as the dividers are locked in firmly and securely ensuring that each of your cables center is held intact and preventing sheathing caused by current systems' inability to secure the dividers properly. Stoppers can fall out or become damaged, resulting in more maintenance and down time. With the Shift Chain divider, you eliminate the need for small excess parts which can break and possibly gain entry to and damage operating machinery.
5 More convenient frame structure - Hinged Type Frame!

The Hinge type frame is created by using the original frame but locking it into place with a ball hinge on one side and making the cables easily accessible by opening the other. The hinge type frame can open to expose the inserted cables on both the topside and underside of the carrier. In case of models of Shift chain(ST)072N, 095N, 120N, 150N type, one side of the frame is fixed by inserting a fixing pin to prevent frame open, which caused by any external impact. Also, in case of ST044N, 055N type, an open side of the frame is fixed by Hook type frame .

6 Diversity & Functionality Combine in this New Separator and Divider Creation!

It can protect inner cable more efficient and safe with the diverse combination of Divider and Separator. Divider consists of the exclusive use of side type (S-Type), the adhesive use of roller type (R-Type) and the pin jointing type ( M-Type) and also the twist and damage of inner cable can be protected especially because this part is designed to use of the fixing pin strongly. The length of separator can be installed from 20 mm to 600 mm and be cut and used 5 mm apart.
7 Straight supporting area of Shift chain by design with strong bearing capability!

Shift chain completely solves the problems of both chain's sagging that happens in chain's self-supporting area and chain's breakage & short lifespan caused by clearance between the bottom of chain's bending part and ground, because the chain is designed not only to have 6 supporting points on the sideband to enhance self-supporting but also to have strong bearing capacity to support the connected side bands straight. In the above reason, it can run straight at all times, no matter how much inserted cables weigh, without sag & arch phenomenon in the self-supporting area of the chain, and protect cables safely since clearance between the bottom of chain's bending part and ground doesn't happen.
8 Without any tools, easy to assemble Side Band!

You don't need any tools to connect and disconnect side bands of Shift chain, but can do that easily by hand, so it saves time and the productivity improves.
9 Various applied installation including ST-Z series! (Zig-Zag Chain)

Shift Chain is designed to be able to move in upper, lower and diagonal directions according to machine's movement. Changing a different Bending Radius value at the point that the chain movement turn other sides can create the bending radius or the reverse bending radius for the direction that you need, so the machine can move in zigzag direction. Shift Chain can be used for special usage such as a zigzag chain, and has an excellent installation scalability in any hazard environment for cable protection with the general chain. If you need special chain installation, please contact our R&D center.
10 UV block and Anti-Electrostatic 10 Discharge!

Shift Chain is produced with high-quality engineering plastic material, which have strong durability and great abrasion resistance, so the chain has less breakage possibility by outside damage and performs stable cable protection in any difficult environment. As the chain is verified through the tests for electrostatic discharge (ESD) and explosion proof (ATEX-Dirctive 94/9/EC), it can be applied in stability to electric equipment and machinery. Also, the chain is UV-coated, and can protect cable in outside installation of the chain. Furthermore, the chain is produced with high-quality engineering plastic, which include none of the 6 harmful substances (restrictives in the Europe market); Lead(Pb), Cdmium(Cd), Mercury(Hg), Hexavalent Chromium (Cr6+), PBB, PB DEs etc and which is recyclable and harmless both to user and enviornment.
